Israel Completes Second Part of Prisoner Swap

At New York Times, "Israel Releases Second Batch of Prisoners,"


At the Palestinian presidential compound in Ramallah, music blared and hundreds of Palestinians waved flags, waiting for the buses to arrive.

Palestinian youths threw stones at Israeli troops at a checkpoint as the release began. The soldiers responded with tear gas and rubber bullets. There were more than a dozen injuries reported among the Palestinians and one soldier hurt.
