Why the Release of Palestinian Prisoners Looks Different

As part of the hostage deal with Hamas, Israel has released over 100 Palestinians prisoners and detainees being held in Israeli jails.

The IDF offer of a briefing came in response to a separate CNN piece about released Palestinian prisoners.
