Israel to free 110 Palestinian prisoners in latest Gaza ceasefire exchange

Al Jazeera  

The 110 Palestinians to be released today also include 30 children and well-known resistance fighter and theatre director, Zakaria Zubeidi. The Palestinian Prisoner’s Society says that 110 Palestinians will be released from Israeli prisons today in the third phase of a ceasefire and captive exchange deal between Israel and Hamas. In that time, Israeli forces have arrested dozens more Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, including 12 Palestinians arrested in occupied East Jerusalem for allegedly violating a ban on “expressions of joy” and “identification with Hamas” during the second release of prisoners last week. According to a joint statement from Palestinian and Israeli human rights groups, Palestinian residents of Gaza taken prisoner by Israeli forces have been held separately from other Palestinian prisoners, including in “ad hoc, army-administered detention camps, primarily situated in the Naqab desert in southern Israel”. “Testimonies from released prisoners indicate that the torture inflicted on Gaza detainees has reached unprecedented levels,” the rights groups Addameer, Al Mezan, Al-Haq, and the Palestinian Center for Human Rights said last year, following the news that Palestinian orthopaedic surgeon, Dr Adnan al-Bursh, had been killed in Israeli custody.
