Three Israeli hostages, whose bodies were found last year in underground tunnels in Gaza, were likely killed in a military airstrike aimed at a Hamas commander, an investigation into their deaths concluded.
The IDF said this was a "high probability" assessment but that it was "not possible to definitively determine" the cause of the three hostages' deaths.
Both Beizer and Sherman were members of the Israeli military.
Earlier this month, the IDF said it found the bodies of six hostages killed by Hamas and returned them to Israel.
The IDF estimated that 101 hostages remain in Gaza.
