JERUSALEM, Dec 1 — Thirty Palestinian prisoners were freed overnight Thursday, the Israeli prison authorities said, in the latest exchange under an extended truce deal due to expire within hours.
The prisoners — including 23 minors and seven women — were released hours after eight Israeli hostages were freed by the Palestinian militant group Hamas.
The truce agreement between Israel and Hamas stipulates that a minimum of 10 Israeli hostages should be released alive each day.
But a source close to Hamas told AFP that two Russian-Israeli women freed on Wednesday in addition to 10 others made up for only eight Israelis being released on Thursday.

The majority of the 30 non-Israeli hostages freed were from Thailand, released under a separate agreement.
