Israel Retaliates For
Negev Rocket Attack

Jerusalem/JTA — Two Israeli soldiers
and seven Palestinians were killed
Wednesday as the army retaliated for a
Hamas rocket attack a day earlier on a
Negev city.
First Lt. Pinchas Cohen, 23, of
Jerusalem and a second soldier whose
name was not immediately released
were killed in fighting in Khan Yunis.
Three other soldiers were wounded.
At least seven Palestinians were
reported killed in a series of Israeli air,
sea and ground offensives in Gaza that
came in retaliation for the missile
attack on Sderot in which three Israeli
children were wounded.
Palestinian Authority leader Yasser
Arafat's home in Gaza City and a
United Nations-run school for the blind
were damaged in the air strikes. Israel
also launched attacks at Palestinian
security targets in the West Bank. In a
West Bank village, three Palestinian stu-
dents were wounded when Israeli sol-
diers fired toward villagers. The army
said the convoy had come under fire.

Minister To Obey
Court Decision

Tel Aviv/JTA — Israel's interior minister
said he would register Reform and
Conservative converts as Jews on their
Israeli ID cards. Reversing course on the
issue, Eli Yishai, of the fervently
Orthodox Shas Party, said Tuesday he
would also insert the words "by order of
the High Court of Justice" on the cards.
Yishai made the announcement after
Attorney General Elyakim Rubenstein
told him to stop delaying and imple-
ment the court ruling. Previously,
Yishai said he would go to jail rather
than implement the ruling. Later in the
day, Knesset members agreed to consid-
er a proposal to remove the nationality
line altogether from ID cards.
