Hello and welcome to News Hour from the BBC World Service.
We're coming to you live from London.
I'm Lise Doucette.
And we start today's programme in Gaza.
The remains of another hostage have been recovered there.
The Israeli military says it has brought back the body of 35-year-old Natapang Pinta.
He's from Thailand and was kidnapped during the Hamas attacks of 7th October 2023.
And he's believed to be the last remaining Thai hostage out of 31 who were abducted during those atrocities.
But there are said to be 54 Israelis still being held in Gaza since that day.
About 20 believe to be alive.
Well, let's get more details from our correspondent in Jerusalem, Barbara Platt Asher.
And Barbara, I know the military will not have been given full details of their operation,
but what more do we know about how they recovered the body?
Well,
they said that this recovery was based on information that had been able to gather over time by intelligence agencies as well as the hosting and missing persons headquarters.
But it was an interrogation they did with someone they called a captured terrorist that gave them precise information.
And then they went to the location, which is in southern Rafa.
And you know that, of course, the Israelis now,
it's essentially an Israeli military-controlled zone, Rafa.
So they went to the place and recovered the body there.
