Israel’s Ambassador Tuvia Arazi announced here today that, instead of spending his mission’s funds on a gala celebration of Israel’s 16th anniversary tomorrow, he will donate the money to accredited organizations aiding Cypriot victims of the civil war here between the Greek and Turkish communities. The Ambassador, however, will be ready to receive at his home all who may wish to offer congratulations on Israel’s anniversary.
