Navigation Nil at Suez Canal
•
GENEVA (ZINS) — Al-
though the Suez Canal is ac-
tually cleared for naviga-
tion, Cairo defers any
official opening of the wa-
terway strictly on political
grounds. No clearance has
been issued for the release
of a number of vessels that
were blocked in the canal
during the Six-Day War.
The Egyptians seem to
believe that by holding back
on the official reopening of
the canal they can increase
the pressure on Israel for
further troop withdrawals
from the Sinai. Evidence
that the canal is now navig-
able comes from verified
reports that a 24,000 ton
tanker has negotiated the
waterway and that a num-
ber of Egyptian men-of-war
sailed through the canal en
route to the Indian Ocean.

The Egyptians are also
beefing up their naval
strength in the Gulf of
Suez. Israel has already
protested to the United
Nations Truce Supervision
Organization (UNTSO)
against Friday's passage
of a Soviet-built Egyptian
destroyer of the "Skoury"
class through the Suez
Canal from the Mediterra-
nean to the Red Sea.
The protest is based on
the fact that the destroyer
carries 130mm guns while
the disengagement accord
bars guns larger than
122mm from the canal zone.
The Egyptians have con-
centrated large numbers of

nically, this is not a viola-
