Olmert: Happy for Gilad Shalit's return
None
Former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert made his first comments on the prisoner exchange deal that saw the release of captive soldier Gilad Shalit, saying that he is not familiar with the details of the agreement reached between Israel and Hamas.
"I don't know all the details of the current deal. I know the details from my term. When I study the details, I will express my opinion. I have nothing to add, other than that I am happy, as the rest of Israel, for Gilad and his family,' Olmert said. (Attila Somfalvi)
