An array of boundary disputes between Israel and Egypt was placed in the hands of an international arbitration panel here Friday.

The panel has 90 days to prepare its report, but could render a verdict sooner.

It will determine the ownership of 14 localities along the Israeli-Sinai border, the most important of which is Taba, a half-acre beach resort on the Red Sea, near the Israeli city of Eilat.
