      Hamas Releases British Reporter Paul Martin


      Hamas has released British journalist Paul Martin, who was arrested in Gaza one month ago. Hamas accused Martin of spying for Israel, but did not give details of the charges against him.

      Martin was arrested after appearing in a Gaza court to testify on behalf of an acquaintance who was accused of providing assistance to Israel. His arrest was apparently linked to his investigation of weapons smuggling in southern Gaza.
