Hamas and Israel finalize fifth prisoner exchange as ceasefire talks continue
Israel and Hamas completed their fifth prisoner swap on Saturday, part of a fragile ceasefire deal. Three released Israelis appeared frail, raising concerns among their families. In exchange, Israel released 183 Palestinian inmates, with seven needing hospitalization due to reported mistreatment. Over 100 Palestinian prisoners arrived in Gaza. Negotiations for the next phase of the ceasefire are set to begin. A senior Hamas official criticized Israel for delays, warning that the agreement could be at risk.
