PM's Office: Netanyhu to meet with Shalits before Rosh Hashana

The Prime Minister's Office said Benjamin Netanyahu plans to hold a meeting with the Shalit family before Rosh Hashana, after he returns from Washington, where he is launching direct talks with the Palestinians.

The prime minister's wife, Sara Netanyahu, said "I understand Aviva and the entire Shalit family's pain, and my heart goes out to them and to Gilad. I know my husband, the prime minister, is making great efforts to return Gilad home safe and sound." (Attila Somfalvi)
