Hadassah Lazar, sister of slain hostage Shlomo Mansour, confirmed Thursday that the family received official confirmation his remains have been identified.
"We got the message from the forensic institute. I don’t know how comforting it is," Lazar told Israel’s Channel 12 news. "It’s absurd that we find comfort in the fact that we received a body and will have a grave. It’s heartbreaking that this is how it had to end."
