Palestinians in the West Bank celebrate prisoners released from Israeli prison

Hundreds of Palestinians gathered in the West Bank to celebrate the release of women and children from Israeli prisons. The first group of 39 Palestinian women and children was released from Israeli prisons as part of a truce deal on November 24. Hanan Barghouti, a 59-year-old Palestinian mother from the occupied West Bank village of Kobar, north of Ramallah, has been in Israeli custody for over two months. During the celebration of her release, she said, ’without the resistance, I would never have been released.’ Barghouti was arrested on September 5 and placed in jail without charge or trial for an initial period of four months, subject to indefinite extensions under the policy of ’administrative detention’. Four of her sons are also under arrest.
