Longest-serving Palestinian inmate, deported to Egypt, sends wife new wedding ring

Nael Barghouti, the longest serving Palestinian inmate in an Israeli prison, had no chance to see his wife when he was freed on Thursday so he sent her a second wedding ring with their names engraved on it. Jailed for life in 1978 for killing an Israeli bus driver and still regarded by Israel as a dangerous enemy, Barghouti was deported to Egypt instead of being allowed to return to his home in the occupied West Bank. He asked another prisoner who was also released in the latest hostages for prisoners exchange between Hamas and Israel to deliver the ring to his wife Eman Nafe, 60, who served ten years in an Israeli jail for plotting a suicide attack.
