Israeli Cabinet Votes to Release 200 Palestinian Prisoners

In a move described as a goodwill gesture to Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas, the Israeli cabinet has voted to free about 200 Palestinian prisoners before the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

 

Israel is said to have up to 11,000 Palestinian prisoners and the list of 200 to be freed is yet to be finalized. An aide to Abbas has said the Israeli move to free the prisoners was “step in the right direction” but more should gain their freedom.

 

While Ramadan is scheduled to start September 1 and stretch through the end of the month the actual release will likely take place around August 25.
