Sixty Palestinians who were arrested in the Gaza Strip after the October 7 attack were released from Israeli prison on Monday, according to a report by Abu Ali. The release has not been confirmed by official Israeli sources. The number of detainees released significantly exceeds previous reported releases in recent weeks.
According to a report by Abu Ali, 60 Palestinian prisoners who were detained in the Gaza Strip following the October 7, 2023 attack were released from Israeli custody on Monday. The report does not specify where they were taken or whether they returned to Gaza.
The release, if confirmed, would be one of the largest reported since the start of the war. Earlier this month, The Zioneer reported releases of seven and ten prisoners in separate instances, and a released terrorist claimed hundreds had been freed over the past two months. Those claims remain unverified by Israeli authorities.
No official confirmation from the Israel Prison Service or the military has been provided. The identities and conditions of the released individuals are not yet known.
