Big news: Israel just freed nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners as part of a Gaza ceasefire deal. 🎉 After years—some even decades—behind bars, these individuals finally stepped into freedom on Monday.
But it wasn’t easy. In their own words: “We lived through extreme suffering.” 😔 Released prisoners described harsh beatings and brutal conditions in those final days. These stories remind us that conflict isn’t just headlines—it’s about real lives.
Former Palestinian minister of prisoners’ affairs shared mixed feelings. On one hand, there’s relief for those now safe. On the other, around 10,000 Palestinians are still in detention, facing tough conditions that have yet to improve.
As the ceasefire brings a moment of hope, the journey to justice and lasting peace is far from over. 🌍✌️ For these families, every release counts—but the real win will be a world where everyone can live with dignity.
