A military tribunal in Gaza imposed yesterday two life imprisonment terms on two terrorists who were found guilty of murdering seven Arabs whom they thought to be collaborating with the Israeli authorities. The two, Ali Mahmed Siam and Talai Raji Taha, both 22, were members of the Palestine Liberation Organization and were charged with the murder of one Gaza resident and with the collective murder of a family of six of Gaza–father, mother and four children–whom they later buried.
