Israeli forces have recovered the bodies of two Israeli Americans taken back to Gaza as hostages during the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on 7 October 2023, the Israeli military says.
Judi Weinstein Haggai, 70, who was also a Canadian citizen, and her husband Gadi Haggai, 72, were murdered by gunmen from the Mujahideen Brigades group when they attacked Kibbutz Nir Oz, a statement said.
Their bodies were found in the southern Khan Younis area of Gaza overnight and brought back to Israel for forensic identification.
There are now 56 hostages still being held by Hamas in Gaza, at least 20 of whom are believed to be alive.
