Al Jazeera has the story

Thirty-four political prisoners, including members of the Muslim Brotherhood, were released on Tuesday, according to Egyptian state television.

 

The government seems to be scrambling under pressure from international governments and pro-democracy supporters, Al Jazeera’s reporter in Cairo said. She added however, that there are still an unknown number of people missing, including activists who took part in the recent protests.
