Israeli occupation forces released 13 detainees from Gaza on Sunday, according to Shehab Wire. The release marked the latest in a series of prisoner exchanges involving Palestinians held by Israeli authorities and detainees from Israeli custody.
The freed detainees were transferred following negotiations between Israeli officials and Palestinian factions. Israeli authorities have conducted multiple releases of Palestinian prisoners in recent months as part of broader ceasefire and hostage-exchange agreements. The names and specific backgrounds of those released Sunday were not immediately disclosed by Israeli or Palestinian officials.
