PRIME Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said Israel had identified the latest remains returned from Gaza as hostage Dror Or.

That leaves the bodies of two hostages in Gaza as the first phase of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement nears a conclusion.

The identification came as Turkish, Qatari and Egyptian officials met in Cairo to discuss the second phase of the ceasefire agreement, which began in October and has held despite accusations by both sides of violations.

Palestinian militants released Mr Or's remains on Tuesday.

Israel has agreed to release 15 Palestinian bodies for each hostage returned and hospital officials in Gaza said yesterday Israel had handed over the remains of 15 more Palestinians.
