HAMAS has expanded its search for the bodies of hostages in new areas in the Gaza Strip, a day after Egypt deployed a team of experts and heavy equipment to help retrieve them.

Under the fragile US-brokered ceasefire, Hamas is expected to return all of the remains of Israeli hostages as soon as possible. Israel agreed to give back 15 bodies of Palestinians for every body of a hostage.

Israel has sent back the bodies of 195 Palestinians, while Hamas has returned 15. In the past five days, Hamas has failed to release any.

An Egyptian team entered Gaza on Saturday to help search for the hostages’ bodies.
