Minister Yoav Galant told Israel Defense Forces Radio, Tuesday, that the return of the bodies of soldiers Hadar Goldin and Oron Shaul, held by Hamas in Gaza since 2014, "is a demand as part of an agreement that will be accepted, but it takes time."
Responding to reports on Hamas television about an imminent prisoner exchange deal, the retired general explained the matter was complicated and estimated that the chances of a return in the near future were slim.
