Israeli and Thai officials said remains transferred via the ICRC have been forensically identified by Israel’s National Institute of Forensic Medicine as Thai agricultural worker Sudhisak Rinthalak, who was killed on Oct. 7 and whose body was taken into Gaza. With that identification, Israel says only one hostage body remains in Gaza — Master Sgt. Ran Gvili — and officials pledged to coordinate returns and continue efforts to recover the final remains amid ongoing ceasefire tensions.
