Palestinian families in occupied West Bank devastated as prisoner release list changes last-minute

Описание: In the occupied West Bank’s Balata Refugee Camp, families had prepared to celebrate the release of loved ones as part of a new prisoner exchange deal.
But several names were removed from the final list without explanation, leaving many devastated.
Discussions over who would be freed continued until the last minute, resulting in last-minute changes.
In Jenin, another family watched celebrations from afar, their relative still held in solitary confinement.
He was among those who once escaped a high-security Israeli prison in 2021 but was recaptured soon after.
Many families say they’ve lost hope of reunion as no further exchanges are planned.
Their wait for freedom continues in the shadow of uncertainty.

Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim reports.
Ubai Al Aboudi is Executive Director of the Bisan Center for Research and Development. He was held in administrative detention from 2019 to 2020 without trial. He joins us from Ramallah to discuss this.
