Hamas accuses countries of ignoring Palestinian prisoners in captive discourse

Hamas accused some countries of having "double standards in their discourse regarding Israeli captives" without mentioning Palestinian prisoners and "the abuse they are subjected to" in a statement as the exchange was completed overnight.

"We imposed the synchronisation of the process of handing over the bodies of the enemy’s prisoners with the release of our heroic prisoners to prevent the Israeli occupation from continuing to evade the agreement’s requirements," the statement read, as reported by Al Jazeera.

"We call on the mediators to continue to pressure the Israeli occupation to abide by what was agreed upon."
