The Prime Minister’s Office, this evening (Thursday, 30 october 2025) [translated from Hebrew]:

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 fallen hostages Amiram Cooper and sahar baruch, of blessed memory, that their loved ones have been returned to Israel and that their identification has been completed.

The Government of Israel shares in the deep sorrow of the Cooper and Sahar 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 the fallen hostages 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 memory be for a blessing.
