Israel has freed 90 Palestinian prisoners and detainees, more than seven hours after three Israeli hostages were released by Hamas and returned to Israel.

A large bus carrying dozens of Palestinian detainees exited the gates of Israelโ€™s Ofer prison in the early hours of Monday morning, just outside the West Bank city of Ramallah.

According to a list provided by the Palestinian Authority's Commission for Prisoners' Affairs, all of those released are women or minors.
