"Health officials in Gaza say many of the 90 returned bodies bore marks of violence and possible executions. Gaza's Ministry of Health says it has received the remains of 45 Palestinians who were held in Israeli custody via the International Committee of the Red Cross, bringing the total number of bodies returned to 90 as part of a United States-brokered ceasefire deal."
"Under a ceasefire deal backed by US President Donald Trump and aimed at ending the two-year Gaza war, Israel was to turn over the bodies of 15 Palestinians for every deceased Israeli returned. The remains of 45 people were returned on Monday. Palestinians awaited information about the bodies that arrived at Nasser Hospital on Tuesday and Wednesday. The forensics team described disturbing conditions, bearing signs of physical abuse. Some of the Palestinian bodies were blindfolded and handcuffed, indicating field executions may have taken place,"
"Throughout the war, Israel's military has exhumed bodies as part of its search for the remains of captives. As forensic teams examined the first remains returned, the Health Ministry on Wednesday released images of 32 unidentified bodies to help families recognise missing relatives. Many appeared decomposed or burned. Some were missing limbs or teeth, while others were coated in sand and dust."
Gaza's Health Ministry received remains of 45 Palestinians from Israeli custody via the International Committee of the Red Cross, bringing returned bodies to 90 under a United States-brokered ceasefire deal. Medical teams are examining, documenting and preparing remains for delivery to families under approved procedures. Under the ceasefire, Israel was to return 15 Palestinian bodies for each deceased Israeli. Forensic teams reported disturbing conditions: some bodies blindfolded and handcuffed, indicating possible field executions; others decomposed, burned, or lacking limbs or teeth and coated in sand. It remains unclear whether some bodies were exhumed from cemeteries or were detainees killed during the assault.
