Israel Radio has confirmed unofficially reports from Cairo that Defense Minister Ezer Weizman will fly there tomorrow for talks with Egyptian War Minister Mohammed Gamassy and possibly meet with President Anwar Sadat. There has been no official word from the Israeli government and apparently none is expected until Weizman actually leaves for Cairo.

According to the radio report, he will be accompanied by the Attorney General, Aharon Barak, and by two aides, one a soldier and the other a civilian. The radio report said Weizman would be returning to Israel tomorrow evening but indicated that the brief visit may be to lay the groundwork for the resumption of the military committee talks.
