The Israeli military has recovered the bodies of three slain captives in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports according to Israel’s Army Radio.

One of the captives was 79-year-old Avraham Munder, who was taken from Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7 and found in Khan Younis, according to Army Radio.

Munder’s nephew, Eyal Mor, told The Times of Israel that his uncle’s body was found in a tunnel in the southern Gaza city and that he is believed to have died in March.

The other two captives, named by Army Radio as Nadav Popplewell and Yagev Buchshtav, had also been held since October 7.
