Al-Qassam Brigades and the Palestinian Resistance in the Gaza Strip liberated 39 child prisoners from Israeli occupation prisons as part of the third batch of liberated prisons, which came in accordance with the conditions of the Resistance, implemented through the truce agreement.

The liberated Palestinian children who were released from "Ofer" Prison arrived in the city of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, raising signs of victory, amid a massive public reception and the chanting of slogans in support of the Resistance and Gaza.

Celebrations spread throughout the occupied city of al-Quds and the cities of the occupied West Bank, despite the harassment practiced by the occupation, as its forces closed roads and intensified checkpoints. In other instances, they arrested families of the prisoners supposed to be released to warn them against holding celebrations.

While the Palestinians celebrated this glorious victory and freedom, the Israeli occupation could not tolerate their happiness and made every effort to cut it short, to no avail. Prior to the prisoner's release, Israeli forces opened fire and targeted crowds near the "Ofer" prison, west of Ramallah, from which prisoners were released, injuring several.

According to the Palestinian Red Crescent, the total number of injured outside the prison was 21 Palestinians. The injuries varied: 7 were injured by live bullets, 4 by rubber bullets, and 10 were injured by gas bombs.

Meanwhile, in exchange for the 39 Palestinian children released, al-Qassam released 13 Israeli captives.

To this end, al-Qassam Brigades published a video documenting part of the handover of the third batch of Israeli captives in the Gaza Strip as part of the humanitarian truce and the three-to-one prisoners-captives exchange deal.

Testimonies of liberated Palestinian women to Al Mayadeen

Shortly after being liberated as part of the temporary truce enforced by the Resistance, on Saturday, 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.
