Two more dead hostages have been handed over by Hamas to the Red Cross, the Israeli military announced.

The handover took place in central Gaza, where the aid organization received two coffins from Hamas, reports Haaretz.

Earlier this week, Hamas stated that two bodies had been "retrieved", but no handover took place, citing Israeli attacks on Gaza, The Times of Israel reports.

After Thursday's handover, eleven dead hostages remain in Gaza. According to the current ceasefire agreement, all of them are to be returned to Israel.
