Israel says it will receive bodies of four hostages held by Hamas in Gaza

Israel is set to receive the bodies of four hostages from Hamas and plans to bring back six living captives this Saturday, according to an Israeli security official.

Hamas claims that 25 of the 33 hostages are alive, while Israel disputes accusations of blocking housing material for Gazans affected by the conflict.
