⌨Palestinian media on November 2 focused on the retrieval of three Israeli bodies from Gaza. Early reports indicated Hamas's commitment to ending the "bodies file" (Arabi21). By early afternoon, news emerged of three Israeli bodies, including Colonel Assaf Hamami, being retrieved from Gaza (Alwatan Voice, Palsawa News). Hamas later announced its decision to hand over these bodies, reportedly found in a southern Gaza tunnel (Felesteen News, Maan News Agency, Al-Resalah). The handover was confirmed by Israeli authorities via the Red Cross by evening (Maan News Agency, Quds News Network, Palsawa News).
Concurrently, discussions continued regarding Hamas's agreement to evacuate fighters from behind the "Yellow Line" (Alwatan Voice, Maan News Agency, Palsawa News). There were also ongoing reports of Israeli incursions, settler violence in the West Bank, and the death of a Palestinian detainee in Israeli custody (Palestinian Information Center (English), Quds News Network, Palestine News Network (English)).
