The Israeli military says it has retrieved the body of the last remaining hostage in Gaza.

It had been searching for Master Sgt Ran Gvili since the ceasefire with Hamas began in October.

Hamas was meant to return all hostages, alive and dead, within 72 hours of the ceasefire taking effect. Twenty living Israeli hostages and the bodies of 27 dead Israeli and foreign hostages were handed over but for the past few weeks Hamas said it had not yet been able to locate Gvili.

On Sunday, Israel said it would reopen Gaza’s key border crossing with Egypt once the operation to find and return Gvili was complete.

Done: “we will pull out once the board of peace technocratic government is ready to fully take over the security responsibilities.”

(Not actually said but it is my prediction.)

It was never about the hostages for them, their ruling coalition wanted as many of them to get killed as possible to justify further war.

We never got an accounting of how many casualties on the day of the attack were Israeli military either, in their hannibal doctrine. They killed their own people to prevent them being taken hostage.

I think even with all of that, it was around 30% military that were casualties, way higher than the Israeli military that targets the civilians first.
