1. VARIOUS OF HEAVY CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES WORKING AMONG DEBRIS AS HAMAS SOLDIERS STAND GUARD AND ICRC TEAMS OBSERVE PROCESS GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE - NOV. 3, 2025: Search operations for the bodies of Israeli captives are underway in Gaza Strip's eastern Shujaiyya neighborhood under the ceasefire agreement between the Israeli army and Hamas.

Egyptian heavy construction vehicles, supported by teams from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and members of the Hamas Brigades, are operating around Baghdad Street in Gaza to recover the bodies of Israeli captives killed during Israel’s assaults on the enclave.

Hamas has so far released 20 Israeli captives alive and returned the remains of 21 out of 28 deceased captives, most of them Israelis, according to the group. Israel, however, claimed that one of the bodies received did not match any of its missing captives.

Israel has tied the start of negotiations for the second phase of the ceasefire to the handover of all the hostage remains. Hamas says the process requires time due to the massive destruction in Gaza.

Phase one of the deal includes the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners. The plan also envisages the rebuilding of Gaza and the establishment of a new governing mechanism without Hamas.

Israel has killed close to 69,000 people, mostly women and children, and injured over 170,000 others in attacks in Gaza since October 2023.
