In a historic development, thousands of Palestinian prisoners have been released as part of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas. The release prompted large celebrations in the West Bank and Gaza, with cheering crowds greeting the freed prisoners upon their arrival. Amidst the jubilation, concerns linger over the deportation of some prisoners, with reports indicating that 154 were forced into exile. This move comes alongside an agreement for the exchange of Israeli hostages, with nearly 2,000 Palestinian detainees included in the release. Despite the celebrations, Israeli officials have warned against public demonstrations, fearing potential unrest. The operation involved significant negotiations and lists exchanged between both parties, and high-profile prisoners like Marwan Barghouti were notably included in discussions. As families reunite with their loved ones, the situation continues to be closely monitored amid concerns about future hostilities.
