The United States arrested a Pakistani national who could be linked to the still-unsolved bombings at two Jewish sites in Argentina. U.S. sources confirmed that it had arrested Mohammad Abbas Malik for being in the United States illegally. Eighty-six people were killed in the 1994 bombing at the AMIA Jewish community center, and 29 were killed at the 1992 bombing at the Israeli Embassy, both of which took place in Buenos Aires.
