THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
TEL AVIV (ZINS) — In the last
six months, the price of housing in
Israel continued to climb, because
of the increased cost of building
materials and labor. Another fac-
tor is the growing immigration of
affluent persons, who are in the
housing market and willing and
able to pay high prices.
The spiral also may be due to
fear of a new devaluation of the
currency because of the inflation-
ary climate. Today the cost per
room in a new Tel Aviv building
ranges from 20,000 to 35,000 pounds
($5,800410,150) depending on the
standard of the building and the
neighborhood. A year ago the same
accommodations were priced at
16,000-27,000 pounds per room.
A modest apartment of two
rooms, kitchen and bath now costs
between 80,000 and 85,000 pounds.
In the luxury class, the cost
would be considerably higher.

nese rebel leaders charged that
the Egyptian Air Force was aiding
the Khartoum government in its
battle against the revolt in the
southern Sudan.
They said Egyptian aircraft were
bombing and strafing African
guerrilla camps to, soften them for
Sudanese ground attacks.
The rebel leaders were inter-
viewed by an Israeli military net-
works correspondent in London,
and their account was broadcast
by the Israeli Military Broadcast-
ing System, "Galei Zahal."
They said the Egyptians main-
tained an air force academy in
Khartoum and an air force base
outside of the city. The academy
was turned over to Egypt by the
Sudanese government to protect it
from expected Israeli air attacks
and is now serving as Egyptian
headquarters against the rebels.
The rebel leaders said the Egyp-
tian air activity in the Sudan was
a rehearsal for future combat
against Israel.
Observers here noted this is not
the first times' Egypt embarked on
military adventures abroad. They
