Israel’s Prisons Service says 39 Palestinian security prisoners have been released under the terms of a truce agreement between Israel and Hamas.

The announcement comes after 13 Israeli hostages were freed this evening under the deal, along with three Thais and a Russian-Israeli dual citizen.

All the Palestinian prisoners being freed have been indicted on terror charges and many have been convicted for their crimes; they are all either female or 18 and under.
