Rabbi Ovadia Yosef's would-be killer to be released
None
Palestinian prisoner Saleh Amouri, who was convicted of plotting to assassinate Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, will be released as part of the second phase of the Shalit deal. He will likely be freed on Sunday.
Shas' spiritual leader met with the French ambassador this week and gave his consent for Hamouri's release. (Raanan Ben-Zur and AFP)
