A bus carrying freed Palestinian prisoners has arrived in the occupied West Bank, after being seen leaving Israel's Ofer prison
Large crowds surround the vehicle as officials are trying to exit the bus, which a Hamas-affiliated news agency says is carrying 25 of the 183 prisoners due to be released today
This comes after the earlier release of three Israeli hostages - Yarden Bibas, Ofer Kalderon and Keith Siegel - as part of the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas that began on 19 January
In Tel Aviv, BBC's Alice Cuddy says the orderly scenes at the releases this morning are a "stark contrast" to the chaotic handover on Thursday
