GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE - NOV. 5: The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) on Wednesday delivered the bodies of 15 Palestinians who died in Israeli prisons to Nasser Hospital in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, as part of the truce and prisoner exchange deal between Israel and Hamas.

The bodies of the detainees, who died while in Israeli custody, were transferred to the hospital morgue for identification and eventual handover to their families.

Dr. Ahmed Dihair, head of the Forensic Medicine Department at Nasser Hospital, said most of the bodies received were frozen and unrecognizable.

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.
