Outrage in Israel over condition of hostages as 183 Palestinian prisoners are released

The release of three Israeli hostages by Hamas has sparked outrage in Israel due to their emaciated condition. This contrasts with the previous releases, as these men appeared in worse shape than earlier freed hostages. In response, Israel released 183 Palestinian prisoners, some also showing signs of malnutrition. The Red Cross expressed concern over the conditions of these release operations, urging for more dignity and privacy. The ceasefire, which began on January 19, has seen multiple exchanges, but tensions remain high. Israel believes many hostages are still alive, while Hamas may be hesitant to release more captives amid ongoing discussions about the future of Gaza.
