The Israeli military said Friday it had identified the body of a hostage recovered from a tunnel in southern Gaza as the son of Yosef Al-Ziyadnah, a hostage whose body was recovered earlier this week.

The 22-year-old son of a man recently found dead in the Gaza Strip, who had been kidnapped from Israel, is also no longer alive. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Friday that it had informed the family after completing an investigation.

Israel confirmed that a hostage found killed in Gaza was Hamza Ziyadne, the son of another hostage, Youssef Ziyadne, found dead alongside him in an underground tunnel near the southern city of Rafah.
