October 7 survivor Noa Argamani to brief UN Security Council • IDF investigations to shed light on October 7 massacre

The IDF said that its continued activities in and around the buffer zone in Syria add additional security for Israel generally, and especially for those living in the Golan.

The IDF says Hamas did not return the remains of Shiri Bibas, the mother of the two youngest hostages. Israel says her children were murdered by Hamas not killed by an airstrike as previously thought.

Thursday marked the latest return of deceased hostages as part of the group's ceasefire deal with Israel. Israel and Hamas had confirmed the names of the four bodies returned to Israel Thursday as Oded Lifshitz, a journalist and peace activist, and Shiri Bibas and her two children -- Ariel and Kfir Bibas.

Israel’s broadened military presence on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights buffer zone set up after the Yom Kippur War seems set to be long-term, following uncertainty over the possible approach by radical Sunni or Shi’ite elements to the Israeli border and the nature of the Syrian regime.

In the workplace and at school, the threat of racist retaliation and genocide denial looms around every corner.

"No match was found for any other hostage. This is an anonymous, unidentified body,” the Israel Defense Forces said.

Defense Minister Israel Katz noted that "Forty thousand Palestinians have so far been evacuated from the Jenin, Tulkarm, and Nur a-Shams refugee camps, which are now empty of residents."

A post shared on X claims the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) admitted that 6,000 troops were killed. Verdict: False It is said that 6,000 people have become “bereaved family members” of IDF troops killed in battle.

In a shocking twist, the Israeli military says one of the four bodies returned from Hamas does not belong to a hostage. As a part of the ceasefire, Hamas agreed to return four hostages. Journalist and peace activist Oded Lifshitz and Shiri Bibas and her two children - Ariel and Kfir Bibas.

Shiri Bibas' remains were not returned to Israel with her children, Ariel and Kfir, the IDF says. All were taken hostage by Hamas on Oct. 7.

On Friday morning, the boys’ aunt posted a grieving message on Facebook, vowing, “We are not giving up on your mom, Shiri.”
