HAMAS sparked fury after releasing the remains of a mystery Gazan woman instead of hostage Shiri Bibas's in a horrific body swap.

After widespread revulsion, the group last night handed over another coffin to the Red Cross, claiming it contained the remains of Ms Bibas. It is to be sent for forensic examination in Tel Aviv.

Israeli tests also reported that Shiri's two boys Ariel, four, and Kfir, nine months, whose remains were released on Thursday, were murdered after a month in captivity.
