Scott Pelley Fired by ’60 Minutes’ After Clash With Management

TEL AVIV, Israel—Israel on Sunday confirmed it had received the remains of Hadar Goldin, a soldier killed in Gaza in 2014.

The 23-year-old was killed two hours after a cease-fire took effect in that year’s war between Israel and the Hamas terrorist group. Goldin’s family campaigned for 11 years to bring home his remains. Earlier this year, they marked 4,000 days since his body was taken.

Israel’s military had long determined that he had been killed, based on evidence found in the tunnel where his body was taken, including a blood-soaked shirt and prayer fringes. His remains are the last of those who were held in Gaza predating the current war between Israel and Hamas.

The remains of four hostages taken in the Oct. 7, 2023, attack that sparked the current war are still in Gaza.

The Red Cross transferred Goldin's remains to Israel's military in Gaza. Dozens of people gathered along intersections where the police convoy carried the remains to the national forensic institute in Tel Aviv, for final identification.

“We’re really excited. We’ve got conflicting feelings,” said Hanini Cormey, who had served alongside Goldin.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the weekly Cabinet meeting that holding the body for so long has caused “great agony of his family, which will now be able to give him a Jewish burial.”

<h2>Bringing Israel's Fallen Home</h2>
Israel recovered the remains of another soldier killed in 2014, Oron Shaul, earlier this year.

Netanyahu said that the country would continue trying to bring home the bodies of Israelis still held across enemy lines, such as Eli Cohen, an Israeli spy hanged in Damascus in 1965.

Goldin's family had held what his mother, Leah Goldin, has called a “pseudo-funeral" at the urging of Israel’s military rabbis. But the lingering uncertainty was like a “knife constantly making new cuts.”

Leah Goldin told The Associated Press earlier this year that returning her son’s body has ethical and religious value and is part of the sacrosanct pact Israel makes with its citizens, who are required by law to serve in the military.

“Hadar is a soldier who went to combat and they abandoned him, and they destroyed his humanitarian rights and ours as well,” Goldin said. She said that her family often felt alone in their struggle to bring Hadar, a talented artist who had just become engaged, home for burial.

After the Oct. 7 attack, the Goldin family threw themselves into attempting to help hundreds of families of those abducted and dragged into Gaza.
<h2>Palestinians’ Remains</h2>
For each Israeli hostage returned, Israel has been releasing the remains of 15 Palestinians. Ahmed Dheir, director of forensic medicine at Nasser Hospital in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, said that the remains of 300 have now been returned, with 89 identified.

The war began with a Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, in which around 1,200 people were killed, most of them civilians, and 251 people were kidnapped.

On Saturday, the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry said that the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza has risen to 69,176, a number that does not distinguish between combatants and civilians.
