Israel has accused Hamas of violating the ceasefire deal after forensic testing revealed the body returned from Gaza on Thursday was not that of Shiri Bibas.
The three other bodies handed over have been identified as her sons, Ariel and Kfir, who would have been aged five and two, and peace activist Oded Lifschitz, 84, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said.
But the fourth body was not Shiri nor another hostage, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu alleging that Hamas "put the body of a Gazan woman in a coffin".
A Hamas spokesman, Ismail al-Thwabta, said on X on Friday that Shiri’s remains seem to have been mixed up with other bodies under the rubble of a structure after an Israeli air strike.
The group told Reuters news agency they would investigate what had led to the wrong remains being sent to Israel.
