What happened to the Bibbas children who were kidnapped during the October 7 attacks?

The Bibbas children, aged nine months and four years old, were kidnapped during the Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023, becoming one of the most recognizable families of the tragic event. While their father Yarden was released alive on February 1st, the fate of the children remained unknown for months, with many people wondering about their whereabouts and condition. Recent developments suggest the worst fears have been confirmed, as Hamas has indicated they are deceased. This news has profound emotional impact in Israel, where the family, particularly Kefir (the four-year-old), had become symbolic of the hostage crisis following the October attacks.
