Via Newsweek, the news that Turkey has released Italian journalist Gabriele Del Grande, who was arrested on April 9, and began a hunger strike on April 18.  Turkish authorities apparently arrested him because he was not allowed to be in the part of the country in which they found him working, and because he didn’t have a work permit.  He arrived home on April 24 (SFGate).
