Kerry's plan for restarting talks calls for release of 103 Palestinians
US Secretary of State John Kerry's plan to restart peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians calls for the release of some 103 Palestinian prisoners serving time in Israeli prisons from a time prior to the signing Oslo accords, London-based Al Hayat reported, citing Western diplomatic sources.
According to the report, Kerry's plan for renewed negotiations also includes a freeze in construction in settlements outside the main settlement blocs and a three-pronged economic renewal project for the Palestinian economy. The talks themselves will be confined to a six month period. (Elior Levy)
