Israeli hostage families forum receives ‘heart-shattering’ news of Bibas deaths

Three members of the Bibas family were confirmed dead, described as "heart-shattering" news by the Hostages and Missing Families Forum on February 19, 2025.
Hamas confirmed it would return the bodies of eight dead hostages, including the Bibas family, while also signaling a willingness to free all remaining hostages in one swap during the next phase.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed grief, stating, 'Tomorrow will be a very difficult day for the State of Israel,' as the remains of the Bibas family are returned for burial.
The Bibas family's ordeal lasted 502 days before the news of their deaths was confirmed, with the forum emphasizing the need for a respectful handover of remains.
