Reports appear in numerous media outlets that Jonathan Pollard is slated for parole on November 21, 2015. It is pointed out that a similar notice appeared on the US Federal Prisons website but this time around there appears to be an added air of legitimacy because Mr. Pollard, 61, will have served 30 years imprisonment, enough to satisfy his life sentence.

Amid reports seeking to connect a possible Pollard release to American’s recent deal with Iran, it is reported that a scheduled Pollard release is in no way linked to recent current events. There is no official statement from America or Israel regarding the speculation surrounding a November release.

Pollard’s health continues to deteriorate and the tzibur is asked to be mispallel for Yonasan ben Malka bsoch sha’ar cholei yisrael.
