The Arabic-language Al-shark Al-Awsat newspaper
reported Friday that Egypt and Israel are
formulating an agreement to release Azam Azam,
an Israeli prisoner held by Egypt, in exchange
for 3,000 Palestinian prisoners. Egypt has
recently denied that Israel, the United States
or the Palestinians are pressuring it to
release Azam Azam.

Azam has been held for a number of years on trumped up charges of spying for Israel.
