Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said a body that Hamas militants released during the handover of remains of Israeli hostages is that of a Gazan woman, and not that of Shiri Bibas, the mother of two young boys whose bodies were returned on Thursday.

The incident has thrown the future of the fragile ceasefire into question. Six more living hostages are scheduled to be released on Saturday as part of the agreement.
