Special envoy Ofir Dekel reportedly left for Egypt again on motzei Shabbos in the shadow of rumors that a deal for Gild Shalit’s release is imminent. Of course these are rumors and there are no official statements being released by governmental sources regarding a prisoner exchange deal.

According to reports, Dekel is to receive a list of 125 names from Hamas in addition to the 325 already approved for release by Israel.

The Prime Minister’s Office does confirm that Dekel is in Egypt on motzei Shabbos but no additional information is forthcoming.
