We are thrilled that the Israeli hostages are being set free and being re-united with their families. However, Israel is paying a massive price for their freedom. The Palestinian terrorists who are being released are some of the most barbaric and brutal terrorists on the planet. It is absolutely sick. Israel will need to assassinate these savages in the future, as they will surely attempt to inflict more bloodshed on the Israeli people.

Israel 🇮🇱 is releasing 1,900 terrorists who have murdered over 3,00 Israelis combined, to free only few of the hostages (women and elderly).
These terrorists will undoubtedly kill hundreds of Israelis in the future.

Who are the Palestinian Prisoners Freed in the Hostage Agreement
By AJC, January 24th, 2025
ADVERTISEMENTDuring the first phase of a hostage release agreement with the Hamas terror group, Israel will exchange more than 1,900 Palestinian security prisoners for 33 of the remaining hostages in Gaza over 42 days.
Among those released are 737 detainees and security prisoners, some of whom are serving life sentences for murder.
The high price Israel must pay to bring home the men, women, and children held captive since October 7, 2023, becomes all the more clear when you know who the prisoners are and what they’ve done.
How are the exchange numbers configured?
In exchange for an untold number of hostages’ bodies, either kidnapped dead or alive, held in Gaza, Israel will release more than 1,000 Gazans who, though they did not participate in the October 7 terror attack, were believed to have ties to Hamas. Most, if not all of them, were detained by IDF troops during Israel’s efforts in Gaza to secure evacuated areas and collect intelligence about Hamas operations.
The breakdown of the remaining 900 prisoners in the exchange is this: Israel will release 30 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for each of the living women, children, and elderly taken from Israel on October 7 and 50 prisoners for each of the five female IDF soldiers. To secure the release of all nine hostages now facing health concerns, Israel will release 110 more prisoners.
Even Israelis held in captivity in Gaza prior to October 7, 2023 are part of the agreement: Ethiopian-Israeli Avera Mengistu and Bedouin Arab Israeli Hisham al-Sayed, who have been held in Gaza after crossing the border in 2014 and 2015, will be exchanged for 30 prisoners each plus 47 additional Palestinians who had been re-arrested after being freed in the 2011 deal with Hamas to secure the release of IDF Soldier Gilad Shalit. Yahya Sinwar, the mastermind of the October 7 attack, was also among the 1,027 prisoners released during the Shalit deal. He was killed by the IDF in October 2024. Read More
