Israeli media reported that the army transferred about 350 bodies of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip “as part of its search for the bodies of detained Israelis.”

The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation "Kan" reported that more than 350 bodies had been transferred from Gaza to Israel since the beginning of the war, for examination by the Forensic Medicine Institute in Abu Kabir, fearing that these bodies belonged to Israeli hostages who were held by the Hamas movement on October 7.

About a month ago, following IDF activity in a cemetery in southern Khan Yunis, the IDF spokesman issued a statement admitting that the army had already sent bodies for examination in Israel.

He said, “The Israeli army is carrying out search and rescue operations, including the bodies of the kidnapped in cemeteries in the Gaza Strip, and the army is obligated to complete the mission of rescuing the kidnapped, finding their bodies detained in Gaza and returning them,” noting that “the army is carrying out search and rescue operations after obtaining "Specific intelligence information  about the possibility of finding bodies in those locations."
