21 South Africans killed in attacks
The Associated Press
Attackers in two mini-vans pulled up alongside a line of hundreds of commuters and began firing wildly, leaving dead and wounded the length of a 70-year parking lot.
Yesterday's massacre came a day after Black and white negotiators agreed to set up a transitional council to help run the country until the nation's first multiraccial election, planned for April.
Violence follows reform negotiations
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — Gunmen firing automatic rifles killed at least 21 Black commuters and wounded 25 others in two separate attacks yesterday night, police said.
Three hours later and a few miles away, gunmen standing on a street corner fired on a passing taxi-van.
There has been an increase in violence since negotiators set the election date in July.
Police gave conflicting reports on the casualties at each site but said at least 21 people died and 25 were wounded in both incidents.
The attacks followed a landmark agreement reached Tuesday by Black and white groups that will end white-minority rule. Political violence has soared as negotiations on reform proceed, and yesterday's attack was similar to several others that coincided with major steps forward.
Broken glass and blood covered the parking lot outside the small shopping mall in the Wadeville industrial area outside Johannesburg.
"This is absolutely senseless," he said while noting the victims were from various townships and did not represent any particular political group.
Police Brig. T.J. Kookeemoer said all the victims were Black and were

attacked by several gunmen, also Black, who then fled in their vehicles.
Attacks on Black commuters have been part of the political violence that has killed thousands of Black South Africans in recent years and hindered reforms toward ending apartheid.
Police blame the violence on a power feud between the African National Congress and the rival Inkatha Freedom Party. But the ANC, the nation's leading political group, says groups opposed to the planned elections instigate violence in a bid to destabilize the country and stall reforms.
Israeli demonstrators protest PLO plan
The Associated Press
The clash occurred in the early morning hours, after the crowd, which police said numbered about 50,000 at its peak, had dwindled to less than 2,000. Police said 45 people were injured and 33 people were arrested in the skirmish outside the prime minister's office.
The crowd, including seminary students, Jewish settlers and the Likud Party faithful bused in from around the country, held up signs calling government officials "traitors" and saying "The Land of Israel Is In Danger."
JERUSALEM — Police used water cannons and clubs yesterday to break up a demonstration by thousands of Israelis protesting a plan for Palestinian self-rule.
They chanted slogans, danced to pop music and saw their leaders speak on a huge television screen.
Organizers said hundreds of thousands came to protest the plan, outstripping the number at a Tel Aviv event.
The plan's opponents had vowed to lay siege to Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's office for 24 hours, but by yesterday the crowd had dwindled to about 800 who were outnumbered by lines of riot police
Although the demonstration fell short of the numbers predicted by the right, it was a show of strength and stressed the ability of its right-wing organizers to put people in the streets to show opposition.
Heights to Syria.
But it is unlikely to derail the self-rule plan that will see Palestinian autonomy in the Gaza Strip and West Bank by year's end. But the angry slogans and the strong applause for the most militant speakers showed the depth of emotion involved.
The strong opposition may also give the government second thoughts about going forward with other concessions — such as giving up the Golan
The Israeli parlament, the Knesset, is expected to begin reviewing the plan today.
Israeli right-wingers object to yielding any land to the Arabs and think the autonomy plan is a first step to a military withdrawal.
Arafat says Israel has agreed to exchange land for peace
"We want to announce clearly that the dogs are done barking and are starting to bite. The dogs will start acting and make sure, physically, that this agreement is not executed," said Nissan Slonyan-ya, head of the Elkana settlement's council.
JERUSALEM — PLO leader Yasser Arafat was quoted Wednesday as saying Israel has agreed to a two-stage withdrawal from the Golan Heights in exchange for peace with Syria.
Rabin's Cabinet has approved the plan to begin self-rule in the occupied Gaza Strip and West Bank town of Jericho and is trying to work out details of mutual recognition with the PLO before next week's hoped-for signing of the agreement.
His comments were published two days after Israeli officials denied newspaper reports that Israel was working out a secret deal with Syria on giving up the strategic highlands. Syrian artillery bombarded northern Israel from the Golan until Israeli troops captured the area in the 1967 Mideast war.
The demonstration was organized by the Likud opposition bloc as part of a campaign to force new elections.
The Associated Press
"I know in the clearest fashion that there is a firm understanding between Israel and Syria," Arafat was quoted as telling the weekly magazine Haoai Hazeh.
Interviewed at his headquarters in Tunis, Tunisia, Arafat reported said that Israel's prime minister, Yizhak Rabin, "agreed, according to the information I have, to a withdrawal from all the Golan Heights, with a commitment that the territory returns to the Syrians within 10 years."
Arafat's account conflicts with Rabin's declared position that Israel would not be prepared to give back the entire plateau. Israeli officials
refused to comment on the story, but a Foreign Ministry spokesman said Israeli officials had no information on the matter.
Arafat said the withdrawal was planned in two phases and that U.S. troops and possibly a multinational force would police the areas evacuated by Israel.
Arafat also supported earlier reports in Israeli newspapers that Israel had asked to lease the Golan from Syria for 99 years. The Syrians rejected that idea, he said.
Long shuned by Israel, Arafat has become a news media star in the country since agreement was announced last week on the Gaza-Jericho plan.
The Israeli magazine's reporter, Uzi Mahaneim, said there was a festive atmosphere in the kitchen, where Arafat's wife, Soha, was also present during the interview. He said that Unm Jihad, widow of Abu Jihad, the Fatah leader allegedly assassinated by Israeli commandos in April 1988, also was there.
Mara. Arafat was quoted as commenting that her husband had not slept in two days. "I'm not complaining," she said. "I'm sure Rabin also isn't getting a lot of sleep these days."

Iraq still holding prisoners Amnesty International says
LONDON — Two years after the Gulf War, Iraq is still holding hundreds of Kuwaitis and other foreign prisoners. Amnesty International said yesterday.
Iraq overran Kuwait in August 1990 and was defeated seven months later in the Gulf War.
In another report, the London-based human rights group said Saddam Hussein's regime last month arrested scores of prominent Iraqi in a crackdown against his traditional supporters.
During the invasion, thousands of Kuwaitis and third-country nationals were arrested and transferred to Iraq. More than 7,000 were repatriated after the war, and Iraq says no prisoners remain. Amnesty said. Do the Kuwaiti remain, Amnesty said.
The group said the reasons for the detention were unclear, but claimed it "forms part of a wider crackdown which began in the aftermath of the Gulf War, targeting sectors of Iraqi society traditionally thought to be loyal to the regime, the majority of whom are Sunni (Muslim) Arabs."
But the Kuwaiti government contends that more than 650 Kuwatis captured in Kuwait are still missing in Iraq. Amnesty said it believes hundreds are still being held and it detailed the cases of 140.
"Some may have been tortured and others may have died as a result of torture or have been executed," the group said.
In a separate report, Amnesty said scores of prominent Iraqis were arrested last month.

Of the 140, 129 are Kuwaiti nationals and more than two-thirds of the 129 are civilians. The other 11 are from other Arab countries or Iran.
Amnesty it says it regards them all as prisoners of conscience "now held solely on account of their ethnic origin or for their real or perceived association with states which Iraq's government considers to be its enemies."

It said most were Sunni Muslims, including individuals from Saddam's hometown of Tikir, where he draws his strongest support. Among those arrested were retired officers, economists, lawyers and former government officials.
