Egypt
"All of them had been held, most of the time together, in an Egyptian prison for more than three and a half years."
Southern District, Israel
"We're at the military section of the Lod Airport."
Central District, Israel

"That's the logic behind the Jenin agreement."
Saudi Arabia
"And this, in my mind, has to be connected to the bigger issue, which is the regional context, and this is the Saudi issue or the Saudi normalization."
