Convicted murderers on latest Justice Ministry list of Palestinian security prisoners to be freed

Following the government vote to approve the hostage deal, the Justice Ministry publishes another list of Palestinian security prisoners slated to be released during the first phase of the ceasefire agreement.

The new list over 700 prisoners includes numerous terrorists serving life sentences for murder, among them members of Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Palestinian Authority’s ruling Fatah movement.

A statement from the Justice Ministry says the first batch of prisoners slated to freed won’t be released until 4 p.m. on Sunday.
