Palestinian teenager 'dizzy with happiness' to be freed

Sep 8,2023 8:40 pm

Thirty-nine Palestinian teenagers and women were freed from Israeli prisons on Saturday after the ceasefire deal looked to be in peril.

They were released as part of an agreement which has seen 26 returned.

It takes the total number of Palestinians released since the start of the temporary ceasefire to 78.

One of those released, Mohammad dar-Darwish, 17, said he was " dizzy with happiness" to Return Home .

The Exchange was delayed after Hamas accused Israel of changing the agreed list of prisoners it would release.

Hamas also said that not enough aid shipments that had been guaranteed access to Gaza as part of The Deal had made it through. But the handover went ahead after last-minute mediation involving Qatar and Egypt.

Israel denied breaking the terms of the agreement, which entered its Third Day on Sunday.

On Saturday Night , a crowd of People - including some waving the Green Flag of Hamas - greeted a coach carrying released Palestinians as it made its way through the West Bank , where detainees are being returned to initially.

Six of them were women, while All The Others were under the Age Of 18.

Among them was Mohammad dar-Darwish, who was held in an Israeli jail for seven months accused of throwing a petrol bomb at soldiers. He denies The Charge .

He Said he was " dizzy with happiness" when he returned home and found his father and brother in The Crowd waiting to greet the detainees.

Speaking to The Bbc , he claimed Palestinian prisoners were mistreated after the 7 October attack. Israel's prison service says it treats prisoners lawfully.

Israel has compiled a list of 300 Palestinian prisoners, mainly teenage boys, who are eligible for release under The Deal struck with Hamas .

Most are in prison awaiting trial, with less than a quarter of those on The List having been convicted.

Among the adult women released was Israa Jaabis, who was sentenced to 11 years in prison in 2015 when her car burst into flames 1. 5km (0. 9 miles) from a checkpoint in the West Bank .

Israel said it was an attempted car bombing and she was convicted, but Israa Jaabis - Now 38 - denied The Charge , and her family has previously claimed The Fire started because of an engine fault.

She suffered serious facial burns after The Car 's engine caught fire, but had requests for surgery turned down by Israel's prison authorities.

After being released eight years into her sentence, she was pictured hugging her son Mua'tassim, 15, who was eight years old at The Time of His Mother 's arrest.

Some of those released under the ceasefire deal are prisoners who were still Children when they were arrested.

Marah Bakeer was sentenced to eight-and-a-half years for a knife attack on a border Police Officer when she was 16.

After returning to her family in East Jerusalem, She Said " I'm emotional, it's a very good feeling" and said she only found out about her release hours before it happened.

Nourhan Awad, 23, served eight years of her 10 year sentence before being released on Saturday.

She was convicted over a stabbing in Jerusalem, and was shot by police during her arrest. Her cousin was shot and killed during the arrest.

She was filmed running to her family in Qalandia, West Bank , After Her release, and said she would visit The Grave of her cousin before Returning Home .

A second group of Israeli Hostages - All women and Children - were.

More detainees and Hostages are set to be released on Sunday as part of the agreement.
