Israel recovers the bodies of three hostages taken at Oct. 7 music festival​

Bodies of Yitzhak Gelernter, 57, Amit Buskila, 28, and Shani Louk, 23, were recovered by the IDF from Gaza.


"Following their return, an estimated 129 hostages remain in captivity in Gaza, based on figures from the Israel's Government Press Office. At least 37 of them are presumed dead, Israel officials have said. The Biden administration has said five Americans are among the remaining hostages.

"Just horrible news. Our hearts go out to the families who are having to deal with this terrible news," said John Kirby, a White House spokesman. Kirby said the U.S. does not have any new information on the status of the five American hostages.

The Biden administration has for weeks been working to secure a temporary cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hamas that includes the release of hostages. "It's difficult to see how this grim news today is going to have a major effect on the hostage-deal negotiations," Kirby said."
