Israeli Peace Activist Released from Prison

HeadlineJan 04, 2007

Meanwhile in Israel, an Israeli peace activist imprisoned for aiding a Palestinian militant has been released from jail. Tali Fahima had served more than two years of her three-year sentence for aiding Zakaria Zubeidi, the head of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in Jenin. As part of her conditions for early release, Fahimi will be barred from visiting the Occupied Territories. As she emerged from jail Wednesday, Fahima said: “I don’t regret anything. I will continue to work against the occupation and for peace.”
