IDF troops in the Gaza Strip have received four caskets, with the apparent bodies of dead hostages, from the Red Cross a short while ago.
The Red Cross collected the caskets from Hamas in Gaza City.
The IDF is set to inspect the four caskets before draping them in Israeli flags and holding a short ceremony led by a military rabbi.
The remains will then be taken for identification to confirm they belong to slain hostages.
Hamas has not announced the identities of the hostages it handed over.
