Some 765 civilians murdered by Hamas since the start of the war have so far been identified, the Israel Police said on Saturday.

The Israel Police, the IDF, and volunteers from ZAKA at the casualty identification station in Camp Shora have been working to identify the victims of Hamas's massacre in Israel's south for the past two weeks. They said that the 765 victims who have been thus far identified comprise approximately 75% of the Israeli civilians who were killed in the conflict.

This is seven more individuals so far identified since The Jerusalem Post reported these figures on Friday.
