Israeli leaders approved Egypt's request to allow the entry of Egyptian equipment and personnel to assist as part of the efforts to locate and retrieve remains of slain hostages, an Israeli security official told The Jerusalem Post Saturday evening.
The team and equipment have entered the Gaza Strip. Israel is preparing for the possibility that Hamas will release the remains of two more hostages this evening, Army Radio and N12 News reported earlier, each citing an Israeli source.
It is uncertain whether the remains will be returned. On Friday, there were indications that Hamas was also preparing to return remains; however, the terror group did not.
