Small-arms fire was opened from Lebanese territory last night on the Zariit police station in the Upper Galilee. On the Golan Heights, a bazooka rocket was fired on an Israeli patrol in the Boutamiyen region. There were no casualties. Two El Fatah terrorists–Nihad al-Akbar, 25, and Selim Fittik, 24–were sentenced to life imprisonment by a Nablus military court today for participating in the activities of a “murder corporation.” That group was described as assassins who murdered Nablus residents suspected of cooperating with the Israeli authorities.
