Israel frees Palestinian inmates as extremists disarmed amid Hebron attack
Israel’s cabinet ordered disarming Jewish extremists and the release of up to 1,000 Palestinian prisoners to curb Arab anger after the Hebron mosque massacre. Amid clashes across the occupied territories and within Israel, at least three Palestinians died and hundreds were wounded. Yasser Arafat dismissed the moves as hollow, while the Arab League urged UN action and protection for Palestinians. Rabin signaled continued PLO talks with settlements status until 1996 as troops sealed off affected zones and curfews sparked further unrest.
