What year did Israel admit to paying Pollard?

  • 1979

  • 1984

  • 1998

  • 2005

Answer

Israel acknowledged providing funds to Jonathan Pollard in 1998, after years of denying any involvement. Pollard, a former U.S. naval intelligence officer, was convicted in 1987 of spying for Israel and served 30 years in prison. The revelation strained relations between the U.S. and Israel, but Pollard's release and Israel's admission of support signaled a shift in the dynamic.
