The Israeli military nevertheless said it recognized that some of those released, particularly young Palestinians, had a high chance of returning to terror and would monitor the releases.

The Israeli military said it had already killed three Palestinian terrorists who were released in the West Bank during the November 2023 hostage exchange, when they returned to terror.
