Hezi Shai

  • ... that in 1985, Hezi Shai and two other captured soldiers were returned to Israel in exchange for 1,150 Palestinian and Lebanese security prisoners? Source: "In exchange for 1,150 Palestinians and Lebanese, Israel got back 3 soldiers captured in Lebanon" (Chicago Tribune)

  • This interesting article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright or plagiarism issues. A QPQ has been done. @Yoninah: How does a "security prisoner" differ from any other sort of prisoner? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:14, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
  • @Cwmhiraeth: thanks for the review. "Security prisoner" is the term they use in Israel for Palestinian and other foreign-nationals who have been convicted of murder, as opposed to prisoners who have committed lesser crimes. As Israel doesn't have a death penalty, these prisoners sit on "death row" until the next prisoner exchange is negotiated. But if you think it's unclear, you could strike "security". BTW I prefer ALT1. Yoninah (talk) 13:01, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
  • Thank you. I have struck "security" from the hooks. ALT1 is preferred by the nominator. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:10, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
