DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Israel on Tuesday said it had received “findings” handed over by Palestinian militants in Gaza to the Red Cross. They were believed to be remains of one of the two hostages still in the territory: an Israeli and a Thai national .

Israel’s government said they would be taken for forensics testing. Palestinian media has said they were found in Gaza’s northern town of Beit Lahiya. Israeli officials didn’t immediately say what the term “findings” meant.

The remains of 26 hostages taken in the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023, attack that triggered the war have already been returned since a U.S.-brokered ceasefire began on Oct. 10.
