    For comparison, here is the headline from January 2024: “IDF says remains of recovered hostages show they were not killed in strike”

    >Two soldiers whose bodies were recovered after they were kidnapped and held hostage in Gaza were not killed by direct military action, the IDF said Wednesday, refuting a Hamas claim that the pair were killed in an Israeli airstrike.

    >The bodies of Sgt. Ron Sherman, 19, and Cpl. Nik Beizer, along with civilian Elia Toledano, 28, all of whom were kidnapped on October 7, were recovered from a Hamas tunnel in Jabaliya on December 14.

    >On Wednesday, Israel Defense Forces representatives presented the families of Sherman and Beizer with a pathology report showing that their bodies had no signs of trauma or gunfire, indicating that they were not killed directly by an airstrike or other IDF action.

    Months and months later, they admit something different.
