Following the completion of the identification process by the National Center of Forensic Medicine, in cooperation with the Israel Police and the IDF Rabbinate, IDF representatives informed the families of hostages Inbar Haiman, and Warrant Officer Muhammad el-Atrash, of blessed memory, may G-d avenge them, that their loved ones had been returned to Israel and their identification had been completed.
The Government of Israel shares in the deep sorrow of the Haiman and el-Atrash families and all the families of the fallen hostages.
The Government and the entire establishment for the missing and the captives of the State of Israel are determined, committed, and working tirelessly to return all of our fallen hostages for proper burial in their country.
The Hamas terrorist organization is required to uphold its commitments to the mediators and return them as part of the implementation of the agreement. We will not compromise on this and will spare no effort until we return all of the fallen hostages, every last one of them.
May their memories be for a blessing.”
