▪ 4 W ar Crimes' Charge Refuted by Israel Envoy to the UN UNITED NATIONS (JTA) — Ambassador Jacob Doron, Israel's deputy permanent representative to the United Nations, refuted charges by the United Nations Commission on Human Rights that "grave breaches of the Fourth Geneva Convention committed by Israel in the occupied Arab terri- tories constitute war crimes and an affront to humanity." The commission adopted the res- olution on May 23 by a vote of 12-8 with 10 abstentions.

"It is this enormous change for the better in the Gaza Strip," Doron continued, "which apparent- ly is the cause for Egyptian com- plaints against Israeli policy and actions there," which—as pointed out on previous occasions—have been, at all times, directed towards ensuring "the safety, welfare and security of the inhabitants of the areas" in accordance with the ten- WE CAN FIT YOU!
