[Released Palestinian prisoners arriving at Rafah crossing check-point in Gaza on 18 October 2011.]

The following is a list of Palestinian prisoners being released by the Israeli govnernment on 18 October 2011 as part of the prisoner exchange agreement. It includes the name, origin, date of arrest, sentences received, and destination of release for each of the total 477 (450 male and 27 female) Palestinian prisoners released on this date. The final stage of the prisoner exchange deal will take place in two months, entailing the release of 550 additional Palestinian prisoners.

For a comprehensive analysis of Palestinian prisoners being released as part of the exchange, as well as the historical context, political significance, and precedent-making nature of this exchange agreement, read Jadaliyya's "The Deal Behind the 'Shalit Deal': Prisoners, Power, Racism."
