After holding the bodies of two martyrs for about two months the Israeli authorities declared intention to hand them over to the Palestinian side in Beit Ummar town in al-Khalil.
Municipal chief of Beit Ummar Mohamed Abu Ayyash said that the Israeli authorities would release the body of 15-year-old Khaled Bahar on Friday.
Bahar had been shot dead by an Israeli soldier at the main entrance to Beit Ummar town last October 2016.
The Israeli army justified his killing by saying he was throwing stones at its soldiers.
The Israeli authorities also said it would release the body of 23-year-old Khaled Akhlil next Friday December 23.
Akhlil was also killed at the entrance to the town after he rammed his car into a group of soldiers last October.
