Most of the 90 Palestinian prisoners expected to be released on Sunday are women, as well as a number of children.
In the next six weeks, there will be more anxious days.
About 1,900 Palestinian prisoners and prisoners from Gaza will be released in the first phase of the deal in exchange for 33 Israeli hostages, including three women freed by Hamas in Gaza on Sunday afternoon.
One of the most notorious detainees is Zakaria Zubaidi, the former leader of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades armed group in the northern West Bank city of Jenin.
The 49-year-old has served time in Israeli and Palestinian prisons for various offences, including murder.
He said he carried out a shooting attack in 2002 in which six Israelis were killed.
Zubaidi was also in the news in 2021, when he broke out of an Israeli prison before being recaptured after five days.
