The bodies of six hostages, recently recovered by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) from Khan Yunis in southern Gaza, were found to have gunshot wounds, according to initial autopsy reports. The hostages, identified as Abraham Munder, Alex Dancyg, Chaim Peri, Yagev Buchshtab, Yoram Metzger, and Nadav Popplewell, were reportedly executed while in Hamas captivity. The discovery of bullets in their bodies has raised suspicions of execution, contradicting earlier claims that they were killed in an IDF strike. The IDF has confirmed the presence of gunfire wounds, and an investigation into the incident is ongoing.
