In the first exchange since the ceasefire agreement was enacted, Hamas freed three Israeli female prisoners, while Israel released 90 Palestinian prisoners on January 20.
The initial group of freed prisoners included 69 women and 21 children, with 76 from the West Bank and 14 from occupied Jerusalem.
The ceasefire between the Israeli occupation and Palestinian Resistance took effect on January 19, ending 15 months of Israeli genocide in Gaza, which resulted in tens of thousands of casualties as well as the widespread displacement of nearly the entire population. []
