1️⃣ *Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he will ensure _"Hamas pays the full price"_* for *failing to hand over hostage Shiri Bibas* after the militant group released a body Israel said was not hers.
🇮🇱 🇵🇸 The *remains of four people, whom Hamas said included those of Bibas and her two young sons*, were handed over on Thursday, the first such transfer under a fragile ceasefire in Gaza.
On Friday, however, *Israel said the body purported to be of Shiri Bibas was instead that of a Gazan woman* and *Netanyahu accused Hamas of committing a _"cruel and evil"_ violation* of the ceasefire deal.
*_"It is likely that Mrs Bibas' body was mistakenly mixed with others found under the rubble,"_* said a Hamas official who spoke to AFP on condition of anonymity, adding the group was *_"investigating"_* the issue.
Hamas has long maintained an *Israeli air strike killed the boys and their mother* early in the war. Israel has so far not confirmed the death of Shiri Bibas.
