90 Palestinian prisoners held in an Israeli jail have been released as part of the first phase of a ceasefire agreement, the Israel Prison Service has said.
Three Israeli women, who were being held captive by Hamas, were released earlier.
In a statement, the prison service said the Palestinians “were transferred from several detention facilities across the country to be absorbed into Ofer prison, escorted by fighters from the Israeli prison service with the assistance of the Israel Police.”
"After completing the absorption operations and receiving approval from the political authorities, all terrorists were released from Ofer Prison and the Jerusalem Detention Center."
