Three Arabs from Abu Shein village in Western Galilee were killed last night, and a fourth was injured, when their jeep hit a mine on a dirt road near Matzuba on the Lebanese border. The incident was discovered only this morning when the injured Arab, who was a member of what he described as a hunting party, managed to crawl to a highway and get help. Israeli security forces are investigating the incident which was the latest in a series of mine plantings near the Lebanese border during the past few weeks.
