Israeli soldier faces trial over leaked secret files

Israel lifted months of censorship on a military espionage case today confirming the arrest of a former woman soldier charged with leaking more than 2,000 military documents to a newspaper.

Anat Kamm, 23, has been under house arrest since December, but the case was kept secret by a court-imposed gagging order. The restrictions were eased after details of the case were reported by foreign media.
