Arab terrorists today attacked a convoy of Jewish trucks near Beisan, killing two Jews, Arieh Wald and Jacob Joseph Milional and wounding two others. Earlier, the body of a 23-year-old Jew, Abraham Grabov, was found in a water cistern on the outskirts of Jerusalem. A postmortem proved that Grabov, who had been missing for three days, had been murdered. Three Jewish passengers were wounded when Arab snipers fired upon Jewish buses traveling between Haifa and Nesher.
