Hamas has handed over a body it says is that of Israeli hostage Shiri Bibas after earlier releasing a different body that authorities later determined was not hers.

It comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed revenge for what he described as a “cruel and malicious violation” of the ceasefire agreement.
