A French court has ordered the conditional release of Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, a Lebanese pro-Palestinian militant, after over 40 years in detention. Abdallah, serving a life sentence for complicity in the murders of two diplomats in 1982, can be released next Friday on the condition he leaves France. His lawyer described him as the longest-held political prisoner in Europe and stated that his release is a political victory against the United States. Abdallah has always denied involvement in the assassinations, viewing them as acts of resistance. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
