Israel's Justice Ministry released on Wednesday a list of 300 Palestinian prisoners included in a swap deal with Hamas.
The list includes detainees belonging to various Palestinian factions such as Hamas, Fatah, the Islamic Jihad, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
The list was posted on the ministry’s website to give the Israeli public 24 hours to appeal to the court against the release of any name in the list.
The publication of the list came shortly after Israel and Hamas announced a truce-for-hostage deal early Wednesday.
Under the agreement, 50 Israelis held by Hamas will be released in exchange for 150 Palestinian detainees in Israeli jails, Israeli media reported.
The deal also includes a four-day pause in fighting and the entry of 300 trucks loaded with humanitarian aid, including fuel, into the Gaza Strip.
The agreement also allows an extension of the pause and the potential release of more children and women held by the two sides.
