The military announced Friday that soldiers recovered the bodies of three hostages from the Gaza Strip, as intensive fighting raged there between Israeli forces and Hamas.
The three were named as Itzhak Gelerenter, Amit Buskila, and Shani Louk.
In a press statement, IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said the bodies were recovered in an overnight operation carried out by the military and Shin Bet.
The three were at the Supernova music festival near Re’im on the morning of the Hamas-led October 7 onslaught, where they then fled to the Mefalsim area.
Hagari said they were killed there by Hamas terrorists, and their bodies were then kidnapped to Gaza.
