Report: Israel may free Lebanon terrorist Samir Kuntar this month
By Haaretz Service
Jailed Lebanese terrorist Samir Kuntar has been told to pack up his belongings and prepare to return to Beirut in the near future, the pro-Syrian Lebanese newspaper a-Diar reported Thursday.
The report said that Kuntar, who has been jailed in Israel since killing a family during a terror attack in the northern town of Nahariyah in 1979, would be returned to Lebanon as part of a prisoner swap between Israel and the Hezbollah guerilla group.
According to the report, a number of other Lebanese militants would also be included in the deal, which could take place by the end of the month.
Kuntar has refused interviews on Israeli ground, according to the report, and has said he would respond to media inquiries only upon return to Beirut.
