Israeli Egyptian prisoner swap signals warming ties

Israel freed Azzam Azzam, an Israeli Arab jailed in Egypt for espionage, in exchange for six Egyptian students who had entered Israel and were suspected of planning kidnappings. The transfer at the Taba crossing followed Azzam’s release, with Israel hinting at possible future Palestinian prisoner releases to boost regional relations. Azzam cried as he arrived in Eilat and spoke with his wife by phone. Relations between Israel, Egypt, and the Palestinians have improved since Yasser Arafat’s death.
