17 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences and 3 prisoners with lengthy sentences set to be deported outside of Palestine
The Media Office for Prisoners, affiliated with Hamas, has released a list of 110 Palestinian prisoners set to be freed by Israel on Thursday, including 32 serving life sentences, 48 with lengthy sentences, and 30 minors as part of a prisoner exchange deal.
The list released on Wednesday, which Anadolu reviewed, shows that 32 prisoners are serving life sentences, 48 have long-term sentences, and 30 are minors.
According to the list, 17 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences and three prisoners with lengthy sentences will be deported outside of Palestine.
Earlier, Abu Obaida, a spokesman of Hamas' armed wing the Qassam Brigades, said in a statement that three Israelis – Arbel Yehud, Agam Berger, and Gadi Moshe Mozes – will be set free on Thursday.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office confirmed on Wednesday evening that it received a list of captives set for release from Gaza on Thursday.
According to Israeli Army Radio, five Thai nationals and three Israelis, including Yehud, will be freed on Thursday.
Israel used the case of Yehud to justify delays over the weekend in allowing displaced Palestinians to return to their areas in northern Gaza.
The first six-week phase of the ceasefire agreement took effect on Jan. 19, suspending Israel's genocidal war that has killed more than 47,400 Palestinians, most of them women and children, and injured more than 111,000 since Oct. 7, 2023.
Seven Israeli captives, including four soldiers, have so far been released in return for 290 Palestinian prisoners since the deal came into force.
Under the first phase of the deal, 33 Israeli captives are set to be released in exchange for an estimated 1,700 to 2,000 Palestinian detainees.
The Israeli onslaught on Gaza has left more than 11,000 people missing, with widespread destruction and a humanitarian crisis that has claimed the lives of many elderly people and children in one of the worst global humanitarian disasters ever.
The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants last November for Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
