One hundred Palestine Arab refugees currently living in Lebanon will be repatriated to Israel within the next few months under the terms of an agreement reached yesterday in the Israeli-Lebanese Mixed Armistice Commission. The refugees, all of whom have close relatives living in the Jewish State, will be repatriated under Israel’s long-standing policy of reuniting Arab families, some of whose members remained in Israel.
