The Israeli military says it has recovered the bodies of two hostages in Gaza and that they were brought back to Israel on Tuesday.

In a statement, the Israel Defense Forces said the two have been identified as Eden Zakaria, 27, and Ziv Dado, 36.

The IDF said Zakaria was at the music festival in southern Israel that came under attack on Oct. 7 when Hamas militants stormed the site. Dado, a soldier in the Israeli military, was a logistics supervisor in the Golani Brigade's 51st Battalion and was taken hostage during the attacks, the statement said.

The IDF also said two reserve soldiers were killed and several were wounded during the military operations which enabled the bodies to be found.
