In a statement on the social media platform X, Katz expressed his condolences, saying, “I extend my deepest sympathies to the al-Ziadna family following the discovery of the bodies of Yosef and Hamza, who were abducted by Hamas terrorists on October 7 and returned thanks to a heroic operation carried out by our brave soldiers.”
The recovery of the hostages’ bodies marks a significant development amid ongoing tensions and efforts to address the aftermath of the October attack, which sparked international concern and escalated conflict in the region.
Further details about the operation or the circumstances surrounding the recovery of the hostages’ remains have not been disclosed by Israeli authorities.
