39 Palestinians to be released from Israeli prisons today: Qatar

Earlier, Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesperson said a total of 39 Palestinians imprisoned in Israeli jails are to be released from prison on Sunday, on the third day of a prisoner-captive exchange.

Qatar, with the support of the United States and Egypt, engaged in weeks of intense negotiations to secure the four-day truce between "Israel" and the Palestinian Resistance, which began Friday in Gaza after nearly seven weeks of war that left thousands killed and many more injured.

As part of agreed commitments, "39 Palestinian civilians will be released today in exchange for the release of 13 Israeli detainees from Gaza, in addition to a detainee holding Russian citizenship and 3 Thais," Majed al-Ansari said in a post on X.

تنفيذا لالتزامات اليوم الثالث من اتفاق الهدنة، سيتم الافراج اليوم عن ٣٩ من المدنيين الفلسطينيين في مقابل خروج ١٣ من المحتجزين الاسرائيليين من غزة بالاضافة إلى محتجز يحمل الجنسية الروسية و٣ تايلنديين خارج اطار الاتفاق تم تسليمهم إلى الصليب الأحمر.

Testimonies of liberated Palestinian women to Al Mayadeen

Shortly after being liberated as part of the temporary truce enforced by the Resistance, a number of formerly imprisoned Palestinian women made short statements to Al Mayadeen expressing their sour-sweet felicity of liberation and offering an insight into the cruel conditions in Israeli prisons. 

Rawan Abu Ziyadeh told Al Mayadeen that Palestinian female prisoners are subjected to severe violations in Israeli prisons. 

"[However,] we were sure that we would be liberated [at some point] after getting arrested," she said. 

"Agonizing pain has set in considering the loss of a significant number of martyrs, particularly in Gaza," Abu Ziyadeh added.

Tahrir Abu Sariya expressed her awe over the surreal felicity of liberation. 

"I still feel like I'm in a dream," she said.

"Agonizing pain has set in considering the loss of a significant number of martyrs, particularly in #Gaza."

On her part, liberated prisoner Falastin Farid Najm told Al Mayadeen, "Our feeling of freedom is indescribable, and were it not for our Resistance in Gaza, we wouldn't be among our people now."

"Gaza, the resilient Resistance, if we thanked it every day, it wouldn't suffice," she added. 

"We celebrate our freedom despite all the occupation's threats," she said, knowing that the Israeli occupation issued orders to avoid all forms of festivities following the Palestinian prisoners' release.
