(Maariv-Jerusalem Post) Tal Lev Ram - Israel will not return the bodies of terrorists killed by the IDF while carrying out terror attacks on the Israel-Gaza border, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, Maj.-Gen. Yoav Mordechai, posted on the IDF's Arabic Facebook page on Sunday. "Israel will not rest and Gaza will know no peace until Israelis return from the Strip and our soldiers are brought to burial in Israel," referring to two Israeli civilians and the bodies of 2 IDF soldiers held by Hamas since the 2014 Gaza war.

Hadar Goldin, who died in 2014 and whose remains are being held by Hamas.
