U.N. Security Council asks Libya for terrorists
United Nations
The Security Council on Tuesday unanimously adopted an anti-terrorism resolution calling on Libya to hand over two men charged with blowing up Pan Am Flight 103.
The vote came after Libya told the 15-nation Security Council that the indictments against the men were baseless and the matter should be submitted to international arbitration.
The resolution condemns the 1988 bombing of Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, and the 1989 bombing of a French airliner over West Africa.

Palestinians consider peace talks boycott
The representative for Palestinian peace negotiators said yesterday the delegation would boycott the Middle East talks if the United States granted Israel's request for $10 billion in loan guarantees.
The Israelis say they need the loans to help settle a flood of Soviet Jewish immigrants.
The Palestinians contend the loans would help the Israelis build Jewish settlements in the occupied Arab territories, the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

Israel strengthens force in occupied West Bank
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM - The Israeli army said yesterday it was increasing its forces in the occupied West Bank by 20 percent, deploying more regular soldiers and special units to try to halt a wave of ambushes on Jewish settlers.
Chaim Ramon, Labor Party whip in the Parliament, told radio army he hoped that the move would "bring an end to this terrible government."
The move follows demands by settlers for more protection and tougher treatment of Arab militants. It also comes amid a political crisis in which Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir's coalition has lost its parliamentary majority because of defections by farright leaders who are the settlers' main backers.
Late yesterday, the opposition Labor Party submitted a no-confidence motion in the Parliament in a bid to topple Shamir's government. A vote is not expected until next week.
The troops are going to an increasingly tense area strained by the 4-year-old Palestinian uprising and an increase in armed attacks on Jewish settlers by Arabs opposed to the Middle East peace talks.
exact number of soldiers being sent to the West Bank or the number already deployed there.
The army would not disclose the
Four Jews have been slain since October, and settlers have responded with reprisal raids on Arab homes and threats of other violence.
Palestinians view the settlements as a threat to their goal of creating a separate state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which Israel captured in the 1967 Middle East war. Shamir's government said it would never give up control of the territories and has greatly increased construction of settlements over the past two years.
The U.S. government has criticized the settlements as an impediment to peace and has held up consideration of Israel's request for $10 billion in loan guarantees needed to help pay for absorbing Soviet Jewish immigrants.
The decision to send more troops to the West Bank came after gunmen opened fire on an Israeli bus carrying men in Jauers Jan. 14, wounding seven people.
An army official, speaking on condition of anonymity, stressed that the new troops deployed would be regular soldiers, not reservists, and that they would include more "special" units, generally a code word for undercover
squads.
Jewish settlers — about 115,000 who live among 1.7 million Palestinians in the occupied lands — have grown increasingly angry about the attacks and have accused the government of not protecting them.
Some military experts were critical of the move to augment West Bank bank
The political crisis was set off Sunday when the right-wing Tehiya and Moledet parties quit Shamir's government, leaving him with just 59 backers in the 120-seat Parliament. That is expected to result in elections this spring.
"Does 20 percent more manpower out there equal 20 percent more security? The answer is no," Ginossar told Israel radio.
The right-wing parties quit to protest the government's offer at last week's peace talks in Washington to give the Palestinians limited self-rule while Israel would retain control of the territories. The rightists fear autonomy would be the first step to a Palestinian state.
Yossi Ginsosar, a former secret police official, said better intelligence gathering would be more effective than army patrols in reducing attacks.
French find crash survivors
The Associated Press
Eighty-seven people were feared dead in the Monday evening crash.
MONT SAINTE-ODILLE, France — One at least nine people to survive a French jetliner's crash into an alpine forest described a terrifying 10 to 15 seconds of plowing through trees, then a four-hour wait in 20-degree cold.
The twin-engine Airbus A320 jet, carrying 96 people on a Lyon-to-Strasbourg flight, crashed in snow and fog before 7:30 p.m. while on approach.
Survivors carried down the snow-covered mountainside on stretchers included a 13-month-old girl who was
Another survivor, Nicolas Skourias,
26, said he managed to get out of the plane and pull a few others out with him.
"We were ready to land, we had on our seatbells, and then I realized we had hit something." a survivor, Pierre Cota, told the French radio network France Inc. He said passengers on the Air Inter flight had no warning.
"We fell into the forest and were brought to a stop by the trees," said Cota, 45. "The roof and ceiling were gone. We kept warm by the fires that were going, and tried to keep people who were injured warm too."
Rescuers said most or all of the survivors were seated in the plane's rear.
unscathed and a 9-year-old boy.
"It happened very fast," he said.
"We were hitting things for about 10 or 15 seconds. We went several hundred meters, careening left and right, forwards and backwards. I panicked at first. I said this couldn't be happening to me. Then I found myself alive."
"There was a lot of noise, and flames. I grabbed the boy next to me, and went out through a hole in the plane into the snow," Cota said.
The plane went down near Mont Sainte-Odile, a 2,300-foot peak in the Vosges mountains 30 miles southwest of Strasbourg near the German bor-
Air Inter officials said they did not know what caused the crash.
