An Israeli who went missing during the October 7 attack by Hamas and was presumed to be among hostages taken to the Gaza Strip, was found dead in the border village where he lived, Israeli media said, Reuters reports.

Israel’s military confirmed the identification of Dolev Yehud’s remains, saying this required lengthy forensics. It said he was killed by Hamas during the attack in Kibbutz Nir Oz, many of whose residents died, including in torched homes, or were abducted.
