Tel Aviv [Israel], February 9: Seven Palestinians freed by Israel on Saturday as part of the Gaza ceasefire deal have been admitted to hospitals upon arriving in Ramallah, the Palestinian Prisoners' Club said.
A total of 183 Palestinians were freed by Israel on Saturday in exchange for three captives freed by Hamas.
Israel's prison service said in a statement the prisoners "were transferred from several prisons across the country" before being taken to the occupied West Bank, occupied East Jerusalem and Gaza.
More than 100 Palestinians returned to the Gaza Strip.
"All the prisoners who were released today are in need of medical care, treatment, and examinations as a result of the brutality they were subjected to during the past months. There are seven who were transferred to the hospital," said Abdullah al-Zaghari, head of the NGO, was quoted as saying by the AFP news agency.
