A protester speaks during a demonstration outside the Israeli prime minister's residence in Jerusalem on October 18, 2025, calling for the release of all the bodies of hostages held in Gaza by the Palestinian militant group Hamas. Hamas said it will hand over the bodies of two hostages later on October 18, after Israel warned that the main crossing from Egypt into Gaza would remain shut until the Palestinian group returns the remains of all deceased captives. Under a ceasefire deal brokered by US President Donald Trump, Hamas has so far released all 20 living hostages, along with the remains of nine Israelis and one Nepalese.
