Among them was Emily Hand, an Irish-Israeli who had her ninth birthday as a hostage in Gaza the day before she was reunited with her father. In the Israeli-occupied West Bank, thousands of citizens celebrated the release of 39 Palestinian women and children. The most prominent Palestinian released was Israa Jaabis, 37, convicted of detonating a gas cylinder in her car at a checkpoint in 2015, wounding a police officer. She was sentenced to 11 years in prison.
