New Rules
For Servicemen

Jerusalem (JTA) — The death of
Capt. Nir Poraz, who was killed
in a failed attempt to rescue ab-
ducted soldier Nachshon Wax-
man, has prompted a campaign
to .re-evaluate Israel Defense
Force procedures for acceptina
into combat or elite units the chil-
dren of those who have died in
the line of duty.
Capt. Poraz, 23, of Ramat
Hasharon, was the only son of
Maoz Poraz, a pilot who was shot
down during the 1973 Yom Kip-
pur War. Nir Poraz was two
years old at the time of his fa-
ther's death. His mother, Mati,
raised him and his two sisters
alone.
The elder Poraz, an El Al pilot,
also was the first officer on an El
Al flight hijacked to Algeria in
1968. He was wounded by his
captors, and held 40 days before
he was released.
"He insisted that he be draft- •
ed into an elite unite," Ramat
Hasharon's mayor, Efraim Hiris,
said at Nir Poraz's funeral.
"He came from a family like
that; it couldn't have been any
other way."
Under current regulations, a
child from a family that has al-
ready lost a son or a parent in the
line of duty must have parental
permission to join a combat or
elite unit. Those who are only
children must also obtain per-
mission.
Ofra Friedman, the chairman
of Na'amat, the women's branch
of the Histadrut Labor Federa-
tion, sent a letter to Prime Min-
ister Yitzhak Rabin this week
calling on him to find another
way of classifying these soldiers.
"These parents are torn be-
tween the entreaties of the child
to serve in a fighting unit, and
their fears of the implications of
the signature," the letter said.
Mr. Friedman said that in
such cases, if the child is killed,
parents feel tremendous guilt on
top of their loss.

Israel, Rwanda
Ties Established

United Nations (JTA) — Israel
and Rwanda have resumed diplo-
matic relations, broken off in
1973 during the Yom Kippur
War.
Ambassador Gad Ya'acobi, Is-
rael's permanent representative
to the United Nations, signed the

accord restoring ties with his
Rwandan counterpart, Ambas-
sador Marzi Bakuramutsa, at the
Israeli mission to the United Na-
tions on Oct. 11.
At the ceremony, Mr. Ya'acobi
spoke of Israel's recent assistance
to Rwandan refugees in Zaire.
