Who are the 602 Palestinian prisoners who are to be released?

Israel will publish 602 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for the corpses of four murdered hostages on Wednesday evening.

The hostages killed are handed over to the Red Cross on the Kerem Shalom Crossing without seeing a Hamas Propaganda ceremony as in previous publications. After the remains have been confirmed by the Israeli authorities, the prisoners from various prisons in Israel are released into the West Bank or Gaza.

Before her release, “Our eyes observe” was projected onto a building that is visible from the Ofer prison, in which some of the caught terms served.

The release of the prisoners was delayed

On Monday, the Hamas announced that they had made an agreement with Israel to return the corpses of the remaining phase -1 -geisel -remains for over 600 Palestinian prisoners who were not released last Saturday.

“An agreement was achieved to solve the problem of the occupation that delays the release of the prisoners that should have been released in the last stack, provided that they are released at the same time as the corpses of the Israeli prisoners that were agreed to be handed over to the corresponding number of Palestinian women and children,” said Hamas in a statement on Tuesday.

The planned publication of the prisoner on Saturday was postponed because the Hamas Shiri Bibas' remains did not properly return on Friday when the hostages were handed over. Instead, the terrorist organization initially replied a body of an anonymous woman, the DNA of which none of the hostages held in Gaza.

The delay in Bibas' remains, Among other violations of the ceasefire deal, caused the Prime Minister office to take the release of prisoners.

“Due to the repeated violations of Hamas – including ceremonies that scold the dignity of our hostages and cynical use of hostages for propaganda purposes – it was decided to delay the publication of the terrorists planned for yesterday until the next hostages were published,” said the PMO in a statement.

Hamas has stored ceremonies for every previous hostage publication and invited Gazans to spectate. There were often disturbing posters, and living hostages were forced to do things like kiss Hamas troops on the forehead.
