Al Jazeera is reporting from Jordan because it has been banned from Israel and the occupied West Bank. It’s an incredibly sensitive and emotional day across Israel as this convoy was carrying the bodies of the four Israeli captives here: Shiri Bibas and her two children and an 85-year-old man, all of them from Kibbutz Nir Oz. The Bibas family had become a sort of national symbol for the Bring Them Back Now movement. Their families had been advocating for their release, trying to put pressure on the Israeli government for some time.
