Israel Identifies Body of 10th Hostage Recovered from Gaza

In a somber turn of events, Israel has identified the body of a 75-year-old hostage who was handed over by Hamas to the Red Cross in Gaza last week. The victim, Eliyahu "Churchill" Margalit, was killed during a Hamas assault on southern Israel in October and his remains were taken into Gaza.

According to Israeli officials, Margalit's body was sent to the Ministry of Health's National Center for Forensic Medicine in Israel, where it has been identified. The news comes as families of hostages still held in Gaza continue to call for action from the Israeli government.

The hostage crisis has become a major point of contention between Israel and Hamas, with both sides accusing each other of violating the ceasefire agreement brokered by international mediators. The deal, which was part of US President Donald Trump's 20-point plan to end the war, calls for Hamas to make best efforts in returning all deceased hostages.

However, Israel has expressed frustration that despite assurances from Hamas, the group remains unable to locate the bodies of its captives. Israeli officials have accused Hamas of stalling and failing to meet its commitments under the agreement.

Meanwhile, Turkish officials reported that their team of specialists was waiting on Friday for Israeli permission to enter Gaza to help retrieve remains buried under rubble. The Turkish delegation's mission includes locating Palestinian and hostage remains.

The standoff has led to renewed violence in Gaza, with 11 people killed when Israeli troops opened fire on a vehicle south east of the city earlier this week. Hamas has accused Israel of violating the ceasefire, while Israel denies any wrongdoing.

As negotiations continue, families of hostages remain divided over the agreement reached by the Israeli and Palestinian governments. While some have welcomed the deal as a step towards peace, others feel betrayed that their loved ones' bodies are still in Gaza, waiting to be returned.

The situation remains tense, with both sides dug in on their positions. As the standoff continues, one thing is clear: the fate of the hostages and the future of the ceasefire agreement hang precariously in the balance.
 
Ugh 🤯, this hostage crisis is just getting worse 😩. Like, I get it, Hamas wants to make a point, but can't they just give back the bodies already? 🙄 It's been so long now... I feel for the families of these hostages, it's just heartbreaking 💔. And Israel's frustration is totally valid - it's like they're saying "hey we've kept our end of the deal, now it's your turn" 👊. Meanwhile, Turkey's team is waiting around for permission to enter Gaza... what even is that? 🤷‍♂️
 
omg this is getting so intense 😱 like what's going to happen next?! 🤯 Israel is all upset that Hamas isn't cooperating about those missing hostages 🙄 and on the other hand, Turkey is trying to help out by sending their team of specialists 🤝 but it feels like no one's taking responsibility here 🤷‍♀️ and honestly, can we just get some answers already?! 🤔
 
🤕 the whole hostage situation is just so heartbreaking... i remember when my cousin was held captive during that war a few years ago, it was a really scary time for our family... but i'm glad that there are people like the Turkish team trying to help bring closure to families who have lost loved ones. 🙏

i think what's frustrating is that both sides are so dug in on their positions and it feels like they're not really listening to each other... my friend's sister was a hostage, she's still waiting for her body to be returned... it's just not fair that her family is having to deal with this all over again. 🤔

i wish there was a way for them to find common ground and work towards peace, but at the same time, i get why both sides are so adamant about their positions... it's just such a complex and emotional issue... 🤕
 
🤕 its so sad what's happnin in gaza rn i feel 4 the fams of the hostages they r goin thru this 4eva & no1 seems 2 care 🙅‍♂️ Israel needs 2 take responsibility 4 the ceasefire but at the same time, hamas cant just sit on their hands too 🤷‍♀️ theres gotta be a way 4 them 2 communicate & find a solution 💬 i hope the turkish delegation gets permission 2 enter gaza & helps retrieve those remains ASAP 💥
 
its like such a sad situation... 10th hostage recovered and still no deal to get those who are left behind back home 🤕. imo, israel should just open up gaza and let them do their thing, but at the same time, hamas has to stop stalling. its not that hard, right? 🤦‍♂️. chinese & turkey have been trying to help, why cant they? 11 people killed this week... its like a never-ending cycle of violence. my heart goes out to those families 💔. need to find some middle ground here, can't just keep going back and forth... 🤝
 
awww this is so sad 🤕 i feel for churchill's family they've been waiting for what feels like forever to get their loved one back 💔 it's not right that he's still down there in gaza, his body just identified but no way to return him home 🚫🏠

and can we talk about how frustrating this whole hostage situation is? 🤯 both sides are at fault, imo. Israel needs to do more to help find those bodies and Hamas needs to live up on their promises 🙄 but what really gets me is the families are still waiting... it's like they're being kept in limbo 💔

anyway i just hope this situation doesn't escalate further 😬 we need peace in the middle east, for real 🌎
 
Omg, this is so heartbreaking 🤕💔 I can only imagine how tough it must be for Eliyahu's family to find out that his body has been identified but can't be returned yet 😭 They're still holding on to hope, but it's like their hearts are being slowly ripped away 💔. It's just not fair that Hamas and Israel can't agree on this... I mean, what even is the point of a ceasefire if they're not going to follow through with it? 🤷‍♀️ The Turkish delegation sounds like an amazing team, though - hoping they can get permission to enter Gaza ASAP so they can start locating those remains 💪 Fingers crossed that something positive comes out of this soon 🤞
 
My heart goes out to Eliyahu's family 🤕... losing a loved one in such a tragic way must be so devastating. I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for them (and all families of hostages) waiting for their loved ones' bodies to be returned. Israel and Hamas, both sides have valid concerns & need to find a middle ground to resolve this crisis ASAP 💔. Turkish officials trying to help, that's great news! Keeping fingers crossed for a peaceful resolution soon 🤞
 
Omg, this is so sad 🤕! The fact that Israel has identified the body of the 10th hostage, Eliyahu "Churchill" Margalit, who was killed during a Hamas assault in October, is just heartbreaking 😭. I can only imagine how emotional it must be for his family to finally get some closure #JusticeForEliyahu #PeaceIsPossible.

I'm also really worried about the Turkish team trying to locate remains buried under rubble 🚧. It's like, we need to work together as a global community to resolve this crisis and bring peace back to Gaza #GlobalCitizensUnite #GazaPeaceNow.

The ceasefire agreement was supposed to be a step towards peace, but it feels like Israel and Hamas are just playing politics with people's lives 🤦‍♂️. Families of hostages need answers, not empty promises #TruthRevealed #HostageRightsMatter.

It's so frustrating when both sides accuse each other of violating the ceasefire agreement 🚫. Can't we all just get along and work towards a solution? 💕 The fate of these hostages and the future of peace hang in the balance, and I hope we can find a way to resolve this situation soon #HopeForPeace #GazaReconciliation
 
Ugh I know this has been going on for ages but like what's the hold up here? Israel knows who the guy is and they're just now telling us? And meanwhile, the Turkish team is stuck waiting for permission to enter Gaza which is just crazy talk 🤯💔. I feel so bad for Eliyahu's family, it's been months since he got taken and still no word on whether or not his body is gonna be recovered. Can't these two sides just get along for once? It's like they're playing some kinda game of chicken over here. The Turkish delegation sounds really cool by the way, I hope they can do their thing without any issues 🤞
 
omg this is so heartbreaking 🤕... cant believe 10th hostage has passed away already... its like they're losing count or somethin' 🙅‍♂️ anyway, i feel for the fams still waitin for their loved ones to be returned. its like bein on edge 24/7 waitin for news... and now they gotta deal with this back & forth between israel & hamas? ugh, so frustrating 😩 cant these guys just work together?! 🤝
 
I mean, come on... this whole hostage crisis is just a mess 🤯. Israel's all like "Hamas is stalling" but what about their own side not being able to locate bodies? It's all just one big game of blame 🎲. And don't even get me started on the US President Donald Trump's 20-point plan... I'm pretty sure that was a total joke 🤣. Anyway, back to reality... it's clear that both sides are dug in and not willing to budge. The only way out of this is if someone, anyone, can figure out what's really going on and make some real progress 💡. And btw, Turkish officials showing up to help retrieve remains? Nice try, but we all know this isn't gonna be a cakewalk... 🍞️
 
Ugh, this hostage situation is getting so messed up 🤕... I mean, can't we just get these bodies back to their families already? It's been months since Eliyahu was taken, and now his body has finally been identified... 75 years old, poor guy 🙏. And what's with the stalling from Hamas? They're supposed to be working together with Israel to get these hostages back, but instead they're just dragging their feet 🕰️. I'm so tired of all this back and forth. Can't we just have a peaceful resolution for once? It feels like the same old cycle is going to repeat itself...
 
omg this is so frustrating 🤯 i mean i get that both sides have issues but come on how can you just leave a 75 yr old man's body in gaza for god sake? its like they're using hostages as bargaining chips and its getting out of hand...i feel so bad for the fams of these ppl who are still stuck in limbo. and what really gets me is that turkey is trying to help but hes being stonewalled by israel 🙄
 
I'm so worried about these hostage families 🤕🌎... it's just not right that Eliyahu "Churchill" Margalit's body is still being held on by Hamas, especially after Israel has identified him and everything 🙅‍♂️. It's like they're playing a game of tug-of-war with the lives of these innocent people 💔. And what really gets me is that there are families out there who have lost loved ones in this conflict, still waiting for answers... it's just not fair 😢. Can't we all just get along and work towards peace? 🤞
 
I'm so worried about these families having to live like this 🤕. I mean, can you imagine not knowing if your loved one is still alive or dead? It's heartbreaking. And the fact that Israel and Hamas can't even agree on something as simple as returning the bodies... it just shows how hard peace is to achieve 💔. I feel for these families who are still waiting for answers. When will this ever end?! 🤯
 
🤕 This whole hostage crisis is just so emotional 🙏 I can only imagine how hard it must be for the families to not have closure yet 😔 It's like Israel is stuck between a rock and a hard place - on one hand, they don't want to risk more violence by releasing the bodies, but on the other hand, keeping them in Gaza is basically torture for the families 🤕 And what's with all these international mediators trying to help? Don't get me wrong, it's nice that there are people willing to lend a hand, but can't they just figure out a way for everyone to get along peacefully already? 🙄 I feel like we're just going in circles 🔄
 
awww man this is so sad 😔 🤕, I feel for Eliyahu's family & friends... 75 yrs old poor guy died in a war that's just so senseless 💔🌎, can't believe Hamas couldn't find his body sooner 🙄, what even is the point of those 20-point plans? 🤷‍♂️ like Israel says they want peace but stuff doesn't seem to be going as planned 🤦‍♀️. Israeli troops just killed 11 ppl & now nobody's happy 💀😡, fams of hostages are all confused & frustrated... still waiting for their loved ones to come home 💕🏠, can't we all just get along? 🤗💖
 
💔 This is just so sad 😔. Can't believe that 75 yrs old man, Eliyahu Margalit, has been identified as one of the hostages 🤕. It's like his story is being played out on repeat - he was taken hostage, sent to Gaza, and now his body is being returned but it's too late 🙏. I feel for the families who are still waiting for their loved ones to come home 💀.

I mean, what can be done? The ceasefire agreement is meant to bring peace, not prolong suffering 😩. Both sides need to take responsibility and work together to resolve this. It's getting old seeing the same cycle of violence 🔄. I just hope that somehow, someway, a solution will come through for these hostages' families 👫.

I'm glad Turkey is stepping up to help locate remains buried under rubble 🙏. Maybe they can make a difference? The situation is just so bleak right now 😕.
