Why were the 39 women and children being detained by israel? That seems like a relevant piece of information writers should report on
They did report on it.
To quote one article:
She was 18 when she was arrested and held in the Damon prison in Haifa, accused of stabbing an Israeli settler with a knife.
Tldr most of the other crimes are:
threatening security illegally entering Israel without a permit throwing stones supporting terrorism associating with hostile/unknown organisations.
Tldr it may seem weird to us, but women and children under these terrorist regimes are brought up to do terrible things and may not even realize it. Though Israel did say nobody convicted of murder would be freed though people convicted of attempted murder were eligible.
One of the women stabbed a guy
This is the best summary I could come up with:
JERUSALEM, Nov 24 (Reuters) - The first group of Israelis freed from captivity in Gaza on Friday returned to Israel on the first day of a planned four-day truce during which further exchanges of hostages for Palestinian detainees are due to take place.
As well as the Israeli hostages, 10 Thais and one Filipino, who were taken captive at the same time, were also freed under a separate agreement, Qatari mediators said.
Roni Haviv, a relative of Ohad Munder, said she was looking forward to giving the nine-year-old his favourite toy.
In exchange, 39 Palestinian women and minors detained by Israel were released on Friday, the first of a group of 150 who are due to be freed from Israeli detention under the agreement.
That’s a human thing," said Yoni Katz Asher, whose wife Doron and children Raz and Aviv were freed on Friday.
For the moment, the hostages are being kept away from the media while their condition is assessed and for those whose relatives have not come home, the wait continues in a conflicting swirl of feelings.
