Israel says 90 Palestinian prisoners freed in first exchange of Gaza deal

The Israel Prison Service said it had completed the release of 90 Palestinian prisoners early Monday, part of a Gaza ceasefire deal that took effect a day earlier.

"All the terrorists were released from Ofer prison and the Jerusalem detention center," the service said, referring to the Palestinian prisoners, in a statement issued just before 1:30 am (2330 GMT Sunday).
