They were freed as 10 Israeli and two foreign hostages were released by Hamas in Gaza.
The Israeli prison service said The Prisoners had been released from Ofer prison in The occupied West Bank and The Jerusalem Detention Center .
Tuesday was The fifth day of The Truce between Israel and Hamas, after a 48-hour extension was agreed yesterday.
Ms al-Azza, 45, was arrested earlier this month in East Jerusalem on suspicion of inciting terrorism and identifying with a terrorist organisation in relation to Social Media posts she made about Hamas's attack on 7 October, which killed about 1,200 Israelis.
