The Hamas prisoners’ media office says Israeli security forces are conducting raids on the homes of Palestinian security prisoners slated for release today in the West Bank and Jerusalem.
The IDF did not immediately comment. In previous prisoner releases, the military has said it made calls to the families of all those released, as well as visited their homes, warning them against celebrations and parades.
