Israel releases list of Palestinians to be exchanged in prisoner swap

Israel has released the list of Palestinian captives slated to be released as part of a prisoner swap with Hamas.

The list, released by the justice ministry, includes 300 prisoners, mainly teenage boys. It is twice the 150 women and children that Hamas said Israel has agreed to release as part of the swap. It's not clear how many of the 300 Palestinians will be released. 

The list contains personnel information including name, date of birth, date of arrest and ID number. It also includes the charges under which Israel has imprisoned them.

Israelis have 24 hours to file an appeal to block the release of prisoners.
