Former IDF soldier convicted of killing wounded terrorist to be freed on May 10th after IDF judge drops one third of 14-month sentence.

An IDF parole board ruled Monday that former IDF soldier Elor Azariya will be freed after serving two-thirds of his 14-month prison sentence, enabling him to leave the army’s Prison 4 facility on the 10th of May.

While Azariya had requested that he be freed after completing half of his 14-month sentence, which would have enabled him to walk free in a matter of days, prosecutors requested that the former IDF sergeant be held until he had completed two-thirds of his term.
