Israel to Release Five Lebanese Detainees
Israel is expected to release five Lebanese detainees on Thursday, an Israeli official stated. The release comes amid ongoing direct negotiations between Lebanon and Israel. Earlier reports indicated that the Lebanese army had received prisoner Malek Kamal Ghazi from the Red Cross, with Ghazi en route for medical examinations. His transfer, initially scheduled for Wednesday, was delayed due to logistical issues.
A Lebanese diplomatic source told MTV Lebanon that the release of one or more prisoners is anticipated as a gesture to support the direct talks. The specific number of detainees to be released by Israel was not definitively stated in the initial report, though the Israeli official specified five.
