Israel Recovers Bodies of Hostages from Gaza, Including Thai and American Nationals

In a series of military operations, Israeli forces have recovered the bodies of several hostages, including Thai citizens and American-Israeli nationals, from Gaza. Among them is Pinta Nattapong, a Thai hostage whose family had clung to hope for over 600 days before receiving the tragic news of his recovery. Reports indicate that Nattapong was kidnapped by Hamas during the onset of the conflict. The Israeli military also announced the retrieval of bodies belonging to two U.S. hostages, further underscoring the ongoing crisis as efforts continue to address the plight of those still held captive. As part of the military efforts, Israel claims to have redeemed a total of 199 hostages since the beginning of the conflict, with 56 still reported missing.
