Israel has returned these 15 Palestinian bodies in exchange for the remains of one deceased Israeli soldier.
Forensic tests identified him as Itay Chen, an Israeli-American who's believed to be the last U.S.
A statement from his parents calls the return of his body bittersweet and says they got a condolence call from President Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff.
The Israeli military says Chen was killed in combat on October 7, 2023, his body then taken into Gaza by Hamas-led militants.
Less than a third of the Palestinian bodies returned in this ceasefire have been identified because of a lack of DNA kits in Gaza.

In a posthumous memoir published this month, one of Epstein's accusers says she also had sex with the prince, something he denies when she was 17.
