Israel is set to release 183 Palestinian detainees today as part of the fourth phase of the prisoner release agreement under the ongoing Gaza ceasefire.
According to the Palestinian Commission for Detainees and Ex-Detainees Affairs and the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS), the released individuals will include 111 detainees from the Gaza Strip, all of whom were arrested after October 7, 2023. The list comprises detainees of different ages and sentences, with eight individuals facing exile outside Palestine.
Despite the releases, Palestinian rights groups continue to highlight concerns over hundreds of Gaza detainees who remain victims of enforced disappearance, with little to no information available about their whereabouts or conditions.
This latest release follows the third batch of Palestinian detainees freed on Thursday, which saw the release of 110 prisoners. That group included 32 detainees serving life sentences, 48 facing various prison terms, and 30 minors.
The phased releases are part of the broader ceasefire agreement aimed at de-escalating the ongoing conflict in Gaza. However, tensions remain high as rights organizations continue to demand greater transparency regarding Palestinian detainees held in Israeli prisons. (ILKHA)
