The exchange went underway on Tuesday, the fifth day of the agreement that has been clinched between the two sides through Qatar and Egypt's mediation.
The agreement has also brought about a lull in a genocidal Israeli war against the Gaza Strip, which has killed more than 15,500 people across the coastal sliver.
The Israeli regime began the war on October 7 following an operation by Gaza's Resistance groups that killed 1,200 Zionist settlers and forces and led to the detainment of hundreds of others.
The prisoners released by Hamas on the fifth day comprised 10 Zionists and two Thai nationals.
So far, under the deal, Hamas has released a total of 81 prisoners while the Israeli regime has freed 150 Palestinian detainees.
Friday marked the first day of the agreement, which had been initially brokered for four days. The regime and Hamas agreed to extend it for two more days on Monday.
Speaking on Tuesday, Khalil al-Hayya, a member of the Hamas' Political Bureau, said he hoped the deal would be extended for a longer period of time.
The Israeli regime, however, has vowed to resume the war with "full force," claiming that it seeks to end Hamas' rule over Gaza.
Hamas has vowed that the Palestinian territory would be only ruled by its own people once the war was over.
