Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard has been released today after 30 years in jail.
The terms of his parole, however, mean that he cannot leave the United States, among other restrictions.
In July, Mr Pollard’s lawyers issued a statement urging President Barack Obama to “allow Mr Pollard to leave the United States and move to Israel”, and last week he offered to renounce his American citizenship to be allowed to travel to Israel upon his release.
However, he is currently still banned from leaving the US for five years.
