JERUSALEM -- An Israeli official says the first wife of Jonathan Pollard, an American imprisoned 25 years ago for spying on behalf of Israel, has moved to Israel with the government's help.
Elad Sonn, a spokesman for Israel's immigration ministry, says Anne Pollard appealed to the Israeli consulate in New York last week for aid. Sonn says she landed in Israel on Monday with her father.
