Israeli Arabs charged in killings
Police captured four Israeli Arabs suspected of hacking to death three soldiers last month at training camp, a police commissioner announced yesterday.
Commissioner Yaakov Terner said the suspects were members of the Islamic Jihad, aMuslim group.
As citizens of the Jewish state, Israeli Arabs generally have been thought of as loyal, in contrast to Palestinians who live under occupation. The case could push Israelis to support far-right political parties that advocate expelling Arabs from Israel.
"This was the first time that a murder ... was carried out by Israeli Arabs against Israeli soldiers in such brutal ways," said Police Minister Boni Mili
Sheik Abdullah Darwish, an Islamic leader, condemned the attack, saying it did not matter if the accused were religious.
Phum Kandaol, Cambodia Team digs for missing journalists
Sifting through tons of earth, U.S. military experts are hoping to find the remains of five journalists believed executed 22 years ago during the Indochina War.
The military experts, aided by local workers and soldiers, hope to determine the fate of the NBC and CBS television network employees who were captured by the Khmer Rouge and Vietnamese Communists May 31, 1970, and reported killed a day later.
The excavation, which began Tuesday, is expected to continue for several days, according to the team leader. Maj James P. Move.
U. S. officials say Cambodia is being more cooperative than Vietnam or Laos in the effort to account for nearly 2,300 U.S. troops listed as missing in the three countries.

Turkish miners trapped; blast causes 101 fatalities
KOZLU, Turkey — Heavy smoke and gas blocked rescuers yesterday from reaching an estimated 150 men trapped deep in a burning mine. Already, 121 bodies have been pulled out in Turkey's worst mining disaster, officials said.
The Associated Press
Heat or toxic gas from the fire has probably killed any miners who surived the blast, said Akin Gonen.
Workers closed ventilation shafts to cut off air feeding the fire ignited by the blast and erected concrete barriers to prevent the spread of the blaze. Ambulances lined up outside the entrance, where thousands of relatives of missing miners also waited anxiously for news. Other ambulances carried charred bodies covered with blankets to morgues for identification.
It was a grimly familiar scene in this northern Turkish city of 60,000 where most families earn their living from the mine. Four other explosions at the
Kozlumine, Incirharmani, have taken 107 lives since 1945.
tuesday's explosion 1,850 feet below the surface caused a 11%-square-mile portion of the mine to collapse, said Ozer Olcer, the head of Turkey's state-owned Coal Enterprise.
The biggest Turkish labor confederation, Turk-Is, issued a statement attacking what it said were low safety standards in the mines. But officials said that Incirhmani's emergency equipment made it a showcase for visiting engineers.
State Minister Omar Benator said that the early warning system did not work because the naturally occurring methane gas that caused the blast had built up a dangerous level a mere 20 seconds before
Gonen said that 101 miners were known dead and 75 others had been injured. He said the government now estimated that there were 150 additional workers missing. Anatolia news agency later said that 20 more bodies had been found.
Azerbaijani fighting rages
Yeltsin appeals for cease-fire in bloody, ethnic conflict
The Associated Press
AGDAM, Azerbaijan — Wails of mourning mixed with gunfire yesterday as Azerbaijaniis buried their dead and fighting edged closer to this city bordering the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
Azerbaijan's government condemned last week's Armenian assault on the town of Khodzhaly as "deliberate genocide" and accused commonwealth forces of involvement.
Presidents Boris Yeltsin of Russia and Nurultan Nazarbayev of Kazakhstan made urgent appeals for a cease-fire in the bloodiest ethnic conflict in the former Soviet Union, but was especially stunned by the attack on Kozhdzhly.
Karabakbh killed seven people and wounded 15, according to Azerbaijani Interior Ministry officials.
Fighting yesterday near Agdam in Nagorno-
Before the latest casualties, more than 1,000 people had died in four years of fighting over the mostly Armenian region of Nagorno-Karabakh, which has been under Azerbaijani control since 1923.
Gunmen fired shots into the air to clear a path for ambulances and trucks carrying the wounded through Agdam to a World War II-era hospital train, where doctors conducted surgery at times without anesthetic and had to strap patients to the operating table.
"Sleep. Food. They don't matter to me," said Dr. Yegubov Sattar, who said he has treated up to 300 wounded from Khodzhaly in the beat-up, seven-car train at a platform outside Agdam. "We need antibiotics, blood, and all kinds of other medicines."
Russia keeps its spies' eyes peeled on U.S.
The Associated Press
The FBI says the Russians are still spying on us. And the Russians say U.S. agents spy on them as much.
WASHINGTON — The Cold War is over, but its agents have yet to come in from the cold.
At first, the FBI thought it was simply a case of old habits dying hard. Now the agency thinks Russian President Putin wants to keepeye on Washington.
firms and the military.
"More and more we see that it's a formal intelligence operation directed from Moscow," said Wayne Gilbert, the FBI's top spy catcher. "We see no reduction," said Gilbert, whose formal title is Assistant Director of the Intelligence Division.
Gilbert said two Russian agencies were active here — the GRU military intelligence service and the Foreign Intelligence Service, the heir of the dreaded Soviet KGB.
Gilbert predicted that the Russians would increasingly turn their espionage to obtaining scientific and high-technology secrets, both from civilian
Gilbert said the FBI was also gearing up for possible spying by some of the former Soviet republics that are in the process of setting up their own intelligence services with the help of former KGB operatives.
In Moscow, a representative of the Foreign Intelligence Service said the agency would reduce its network of intelligence officers and makeable number. She did not elaborate.
Tatyana Samolis said Russia expected reciprocal reductions but did not believe the United States would cut down its spy operations, given the economic and political turmoil in the Commonwealth of Independent States.
Recent comments by U.S. officials rear out that prediction.
CIA Director Robert Gates has said the United States needs to dramatically increase its so-called human intelligence collection — in other words, spying.
At a time of increasing budget constraints, the United States has
nonetheless decided to open embassies in all but one of the former 15 Soviet republics, in part to serve as listening posts to developments in the republics.
For the United States, the difference from Cold War days is that much information is now openly available in government and media publications.
For Russia, the difference is that the doors to the United States have opened to a flood of Russian academics, businessmen and tourists — providing much more cover for its spies than it had under the strict monitoring of Cold War days.
The Russians are expected to be, in some ways, more active than before to makeup for losing the services of their east European proxies who were known as consummate professionals and were subject to less surveillance than the Soviets.
The Czechs, for example, were used by the Soviets to steal secrets in Silicon Valley. Now the Russians will have to ford themselves, said a law enforcement official who added that
With so much interaction between U.S. and Russian firms and their scientists, "the situation has become so porous there's no way we can control it," the law enforcement officer said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
bi-tech firms have been alerted to such possibilities.
Gilbert said that it was far easier to spot Soviet spies when they served undercover as diplomats or journalists whose numbers and movements were strictly restricted by both sides.
"I question their assertion that they won't use journalists" as spies any more.
Gilbert said that even as the Russians were spying here, they were also requesting and offering cooperation in international terrorism and drug trafficking.
The United States, in turn, is believed to have asked the Russians for help in solving some espionage cases involving Americans suspected of having spied for the Soviet Union and Soviets who allegedly spied against this country.
