After nearly seven weeks in captivity, 24 hostages seized by Hamas in its deadly Oct. 7 attack on Israel are now free after crossing into Egypt. In exchange, Israel released 39 Palestinians hours later at the city of Ramallah in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

    Just out of curiosity what’s stopping Israel from imprisoning the same people after all hostages are either being freed or are being confirmed dead? It is not that they are not doing it though. And the other day there was a story of a woman who was imprisoned in 2015 for 8.5 years and now at the end of 2023 if my math isn’t wrong she should be released anyway.
