In his latest meeting with PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen), outgoing Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has informed the PA leader that next month, coinciding with the Eid al-Adha (Feast of the Sacrifice), Israel will release an additional 250 Arab prisoners.

Olmert stated those released will be among the less serious security prisoners, and no one affiliated with Islamic Jihad or Hamas.
