以色列釋放更多巴勒斯坦囚犯

Israel has freed 26 more Palestinian prisoners who were jailed for deadly attacks on Israeli civilians, in the latest release under an agreement to revive peace talks between the two sides.

Crowds cheering, waving flags and setting off fireworks welcomed the freed prisoners with a hero's welcome early Tuesday in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and other officials greeted a group of them in Ramallah with hugs and kisses, and Mr. Abbas vowed to press for more prisoners to be allowed to go home.

The latest release was the third of four agreed to with Israel under which a total of 104 Palestinians will be freed.

The releases infuriate many Israelis, including some members of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Cabinet. They consider the ex-prisoners terrorists.以色列又釋放了26名巴勒斯坦囚犯，他們因對以色列平民發動致命襲擊而被監禁。依照以巴雙方爲重啓和談而簽訂的一項協議，以色列同意釋放巴基斯坦囚犯。

星期二清晨，人們在約旦河西岸和加沙地帶歡呼、揮舞旗幟和燃放焰火，對獲釋囚犯給予英雄式的歡迎。

巴勒斯坦民族權力機構主席阿巴斯和其他官員在拉馬拉迎接獲釋囚犯，擁抱和親吻他們。阿巴斯誓言將施加壓力，讓更多囚犯返回家鄉。

這是以色列同意釋放四批囚犯中的第三批，以色列總共將釋放104名巴勒斯坦人。

釋放巴勒斯坦囚犯使很多以色列人感到憤怒，其中包括以色列總理內塔尼亞胡內閣的一些成員。他們認爲這些前囚犯是恐怖分子。
