Families of missing Israeli hostages demand pause in Gaza truce plan

Families of Israeli hostages are urging a delay in the next phase of the Gaza ceasefire until Hamas returns the bodies of all remaining deceased captives. Despite the ceasefire, which ended the recent conflict between Israel and Hamas, 13 hostages' bodies have yet to be recovered, prompting calls for action from both the Israeli government and international mediators. Egyptian recovery teams, along with Red Cross staff and a Hamas representative, have entered Gaza to assist in the search for the bodies amid significant destruction. Meanwhile, discussions continue over the composition of an international security force to oversee the truce, with Israel opposing Turkey's involvement and aid agencies seeking greater access to Gaza.
