Tug of War

Why the Release of Palestinian Prisoners Looks Different

Listen Later

As part of the hostage deal with Hamas, Israel has released over 100 Palestinians prisoners and detainees being held in Israeli jails. However, thousands remain behind bars – some of whom are detained without a trial or formal charges. In this episode, CNN Chief International Investigative Correspondent Nima Elbagir explains why the reunions in the West Bank look very different from the Israeli homecomings.

Correction: This episode has been updated to correct that CNN contacted the Israeli Prime Minister's Office for response, not the IDF. The IDF offer of a briefing came in response to a separate CNN piece about released Palestinian prisoners.
