Vanunu charged for defying parole
Former Israeli nuclear technician Mordechai Vanunu has been charged with violating the terms of his parole.
The charges relate to Vanunu's interviews with the foreign media and defying a travel ban.
Mordechai Vanunu served 18 years in jail for disclosing details of Israel's nuclear programme, and was released in April under strict conditions.
The Christian convert was briefly held over Christmas after attempting to go to the West Bank town of Bethlehem.
Israel insists Vanunu still poses a security threat and he is banned from leaving Israel - including visiting the West Bank and Gaza Strip - or talking to foreigners without permission.
But he has given several interviews to foreign media, including the BBC, even though he denies passing on classified information.
