The Israeli military said the Red Cross had received two coffins of dead hostages from Hamas in Gaza and was en route to give them to Israeli forces.
Hamas has said the return of the remaining bodies "may take some time" due to the destruction wrought in Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday instructed the country's military to "carry out powerful strikes in Gaza," a statement from his office said, in response to alleged ceasefire violations by Hamas.
