Masri: Any coming deal will include prisoners from all territories

Monday 23-January-2017

MP Mushir al-Masri deputy on Hamas in the Palestinian Legislative council (PLC) said that any future prisoners’ swap deal will include releasing Palestinian prisoners regardless of their places of residence.

Hamas Movement refused Israel’s bargains to deal with detainees of some districts rather than others in the Egyptian-sponsored Wafaa al-Ahrar swap deal he underlined.

In his speech during a celebration in solidarity with Palestinian prisoners before the headquarters of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Gaza on Monday Masri said that his Movement has always been supportive to the unity of the Palestinian people.

Al-Qassam Brigades the armed wing of Hamas revealed four months ago that at least four Israeli soldiers are detained in Gaza with no further details on their fate or real number. It said that any more information would hinge on releasing all Palestinian prisoners released in Wafaa al-Ahrar deal but re-arrested by the Israeli occupation authorities.
