Palestinian Islamic Jihad provided the coordinates for the remains of Ran Gvili, the last hostage in Gaza, three weeks ago, it announced after Israel found his body in a cemetery in Gaza City today.
‘We gave the coordinates of the last prisoner’s body to mediators three weeks ago,’ says the spokesman for PIJ’s armed wing, al-Quds Brigades, who goes by the nom de guerre Abu Hamza.
‘The enemy purposely delayed coordination and search operations’ for the body, he claims, referring to Israel.
PIJ has previously said that while it initially held Gvili’s body in Gaza, it later handed it over to Hamas.
