Netanyahu reiterates opposition to Palestinian state

Israeli authorities announced Thursday that the remains returned to Israel from the Gaza Strip on Wednesday have been identified as that of a 42-year-old Thai national, Sudthisak Rinthalak.

Sudthisak was an agricultural worker in southern Israel who was killed on Oct. 7, 2023 during the Hamas-led terror attack. His body was taken to Gaza and held by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad militant group, according to the Israel Defense Forces.

Israeli officials have "informed Sudthisak's family that arrangements for his return for burial in his country would be made in coordination with the Thai Embassy in Israel," according to the Israeli Prime Minister's Office.

A total of 39 Thai nationals were killed and 31 were taken captive on that day, according to Israeli President Isaac Herzog. Sudthisak is said to be the last Thai hostage to be returned.

The remains of one more hostage -- an Israeli national -- are believed to still be in Gaza.

President Donald Trump acknowledged Israel's renewed airstrikes in Gaza on Wednesday, though said he believed phase one of the current ceasefire would hold and that phase two would come to fruition.

"You know, they had a problem today, I understand, with a bomb that went off," Trump told reporters. "Hurt some people pretty badly, probably killed some people, they're telling me, it just happened."

The airstrikes came after four Israeli troops were injured in what the Israel Defense Forces said was a Hamas attack in the southern Gaza city of Rafah. At least five people were killed in the retaliatory Israeli strikes, the Kuwait field hospital in southern Gaza reported.

Nonetheless, Trump said that he believed the ceasefire -- which came into effect in October -- was "going along well."

Trump also expressed confidence in the implementation of phase two of the agreement. "Phase two is moving along, yeah. It's going to happen," he said.

Israeli forces said in a statement that they struck an alleged "Hamas terrorist" in the southern Gaza Strip on Wednesday.

At least five people were killed and 10 people were injured by the Israeli strikes, the Kuwait field hospital in southern Gaza reported.

The Israel Defense Forces said the strikes were in response to what it called a "blatant violation" of the ceasefire agreement earlier in the day. In that incident, four IDF soldiers were injured after an exchange of fire in Rafah.

At least seven people were injured at a school where displaced people are living in Gaza City after it was targeted by Israeli fire on Tuesday, according to the Gaza Civil Defense and Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City.

The school is located in a part of Gaza that Israeli troops are not in control of, past the yellow line established in the first phase of the ceasefire.

When asked about the incident, the Israel Defense Forces said troops identified “suspicious movement,” while “operating in the northern Gaza Strip,” in a statement to ABC News.

IDF troops “fired to remove the threat” in the area, and details of the incident are “under review,” the IDF said.
