Israel released 90 Palestinian prisoners to cheering crowds in the West Bank after Hamas returned three hostages that were being held in Gaza.
"There’s this double feeling we’re living in, on the one hand, this feeling of freedom, that we thank everyone for, and on the other hand, this pain, of losing so many Palestinian martyrs," released detainee and political leader Khalida Jarrar told the news agency. Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.
The 62-year-old is a leading member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, which the U.S. has designated as a terrorist organization. Jarrar has been in and out of Israeli prison in recent years and Human Rights Watch has previously called her arrests part of Israel’s wider crackdown on non-violent political opposition.
