Former Hamas captive Gilad Shalit signed a petition urging President Shimon Peres to help free convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard from US prison, Ynet learned Thursday.
The petition links Pollard's plight to US President Barack Obama's announced intention to award Peres the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
