In short:

The IDF announced the conclusions of its investigation into the deaths of Corporal Nik Beizer, Sergeant Ron Sherman and Elia Toledano on Sunday.

It said investigations had determined that the three were likely killed in an IDF air strike in November that also killed a senior Hamas militant, Ahmed Ghandour.

What's next?

The conclusions could add pressure on the government to strike a deal to bring home the remaining hostages held by Hamas.
