WorldIsrael releases Lebanese civilian, says five prisoners will be freed

Israel has released Lebanese civilian Malek Ghazi and pledged to free five more detainees, saying interrogations found they were not members of a terrorist organisation or involved in terrorism. Ghazi was transferred to the Lebanese army through the ICRC, marking the first release since US-brokered Beirut-Tel Aviv talks began in April. Lebanon’s prime minister welcomed the move and vowed to pursue the release of all prisoners.
