Freed Palestinian: 'We have the right to defend ourselves'

Season 2023 Episode 342 | 4m 32s

Israel currently holds more than 7000 Palestinian prisoners. About 2000 of them are held in administrative detention, without charge. And of the 300 Palestinians whom Israel identifies as possible releases, one third are under 18. Nick Schifrin talks to one Palestinian woman who was recently released by Israel in exchange for Hamas releasing hostages.
