Intifida Using
More Firearms

Jerusalem (JTA) — The
murder of an Israel Defense
Force soldier by armed Pa-
lestinians has heightened
concern that the intifada is
increasingly resorting to
firearms, something its
leadership avoided in the
past in order to gain and re-
tain sympathy abroad.
Sgt. Yoram Cohen, 20,
whose home was a moshav
in the Ta'anach region, near
Afula, was the 11th IDF
soldier killed in the ad-
ministered territories since
the Palestinian uprising
began in December 1987.
Sgt. Cohen was buried last
week. His flag-draped coffin
was followed by hundreds of
local farm families as it was
borne to the cemetery near
his home. The young soldier
was eulogized by the com-
mander of the Givati
Brigade.
According to an IDF an-
nouncement, Sgt. Cohen was
one of several soldiers in
patrol cars attacked by two
gunmen firing an Uzi sub-
machine gun and a Soviet-
made Kalachnikov assault
rifle from concealed posi-
tions at a range of about 100
feet.
He was killed instantly,
the IDF said.
The fire was returned. IDF
troops confined the residents
of Jenin and six neighboring
villages to their homes while
they combed the area for the
assailants. The entire region
was placed under nighttime
curfew for one week.
Military sources said
members of terrorist cells
have recently been roaming
the Jenin region, searching
for targets to shoot at.
Firearms are readily
available in the territories,
most of them stolen from
IDF camps or bought on the
black market.
In other violence, two Arab
youths were fatally shot by
Israeli soldiers Saturday
during a rock-throwing inci-
dent in Nablus.
According to the IDF, the
violence was caused by
gangs hurling rocks and
paving blocks at soldiers'
lookout posts. The soldiers
opened fire to protect them-
selves, killing two Palestin-
ians, the army said.
One was identified later as
Buraq al-Masri, 17-year-old
son of a prominent Palestin-
ian nationalist, Salah al-
Masri.
At least 827 Palestinians
and 68 Israelis have died in
the intifada to date. Another
397 Palestinians were killed
by fellow Arabs.
