He family and several residents of the camp, in addition to representative of detainees and social societies travelled to Jabara military roadblock, south of Tulkarem, in the northern part of the West Bank, to welcome her and transport her back home.

Al Azza was born in December 28, 1986; she was taken prisoner after the army broke into her home in summer 2004, and remained in detention for 37 months after the Israeli security claimed that she aided resistance fighters, and charged her of membership of the Al Aqsa Brigades, the armed wing of Fateh.

The Nafha Society called on the Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, to practice pressure on the Israeli leadership to release more than 100 female detainees imprisoned under harsh living conditions.
