BREAKING: Comprehensive Prisoner Exchange Deal Imminent?

About 20 minutes ago, Walla (Hebrew) passed on a report from the newspaper Ma'ariv. We can't find this report on Ma'arive's website, so we assume that they're talking about the print edition which just hit newsstands. Apparently, the Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram, quoting reliable sources, says that German mediators have worked out a prisoner exchange deal. This deal is not finalized, but the expectation is that within 2 to 3 weeks Israel will release a still unspecified number of prisoners in exchange for the three soldiers kidnapped by Hamas and Hezbollah. More updates as we get them.
