The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has seen all 20 remaining living Israeli hostages freed, with families in Hostages Square erupting in tears of joy.

But as the bodies of the dead are slowly returned, we speak to an activist who tragically lost his cousin and niece in the October 7 attacks about the despair of the families who won't get a reunion.

And in headlines today, Israeli authorities say one of the bodies returned to them from Hamas on Tuesday night local time, is not one of the hostages they’re looking for; Disgraced former political staffer Bruce Lehrmann is fighting to safeguard personal diaries that were seized during a raid on his home by the anti-corruption watchdog; Kim Kardashian has sat down with Alex Cooper on the Call Her Daddy podcast talking about her ex husband Kanye’s erratic behaviour, and how he affects her dating life now; Liam Payne’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy has recalled the last time she said goodbye to the One Direction star a year on from his tragic death
