Israel delays release of Palestinian prisoners as families wait in Ramallah
Israel has postponed the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners that was set for February 22. The delay is due to alleged violations by Hamas, including the use of hostages for propaganda, according to the Israeli Prime Minister's Office. Hamas condemned the delay, stating it violates the ceasefire agreement. This decision follows Hamas's release of six Israeli hostages to Israel on the same day. Families in Ramallah are waiting for their loved ones, who were expected to be part of the prisoner exchange. Footage shows them gathered at the Ramallah Cultural Palace.
