Israeli PM seeks Red Cross help to recover 2 soldiers killed in Gaza

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has asked the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to help retrieve the bodies of two soldiers killed in the Gaza Strip.

Netanyahu met ICRC President Peter Maurer on Thursday and asked him to assist in recovering the bodies of Staff Sergeant Oron Shaul and 2nd Lt.Hadar Goldin.

The two soldiers had been killed in battles with Palestinian resistance fighters in the Gaza Strip, which reeled under a month of Israeli attacks since July 7.
