Parole board rejects Ahed Tamimi's request for early release

Hasharon Prison's parole board rejected Wednesday Ahed Tamimi's request for an early release.

Tamimi was convicted three months ago of assaulting an IDF soldier and incitement. She was sentenced for eight months in prison.

The parole board said its decision stems from the severity of Tamimi's actions as well as her not showing regret over her actions.
