Six prominent Gaza Arabs accused of involvement in terrorist acts and sabotage are being re located in the Sinai Peninsula where they will be quartered in a Bedouin settlement under the supervision of Israeli defense forces. The relocation order was issued by Brig. Gen. Menahem Aviram, commander of the Gaza Strip and Northern Sinai. The six Arabs were given time today to gather their belongings and make necessary personal arrangements before their departure.
