None
Hamas commander Muhammad Abu Tir has been released from prison after serving a sentence of four years.
Abu Tir was imprisoned in Nafha Prison in southern Israel, from whence he was transferred to a detainment cell in Jerusalem in preparation for his release. He was arrested in 2006 during a wide-ranging operation in which 60 senior political figures, including ministers of the Hamas government and parliament members were detained. (Raanan Ben-Zur)
