Israel delays Palestinian prisoner release after Hamas' 'humiliating' treatment of hostages, Netanyahu says
Fox News
Israel is protesting Hamas terrorists' treatment of hostages by delaying the seventh hostage-prisoner exchange, accusing Palestinians of humiliating Israeli hostages.
"In light of Hamas’s repeated violations, including the ceremonies that humiliate our hostages and the cynical exploitation of our hostages for propaganda purposes, it has been decided to delay the release of terrorists that was planned for yesterday until the release of the next hostages has been assured, and without the humiliating ceremonies," the office's statement said.

The statement came after reports of Hamas fighters exploiting Israeli prisoners while they were being released. On Saturday, five of the six freed hostages were accompanied by armed militants in front of a crowd, including three Israeli hostages who posed alongside terrorists.
