BANGKOK – Thai Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin on Friday confirmed the deaths of two Thais taken hostage in the October 7 attack on Israel, and whose bodies were being held by Hamas.

The Israeli army said late Thursday that it had informed the families of the deaths of the two men, who were identified as 'kidnapped Thai citizens' and earlier believed to be alive in the Gaza Strip.
