Deputy Prime Minister Yigael Yadin was reported Thursday to be resting comfortably in Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem and may be sent home by Friday, doctors said. Yadin was admitted to the hospital Wednesday when he complained of chest pains while dining in a Jerusalem restaurant. He was rushed to the hospital where examinations were carried out in the intensive care unit. But doctors ruled out any suspicion of a heart attack, describing his ailment as a passing indisposition.
