Israel to Pay Compensation to Heirs of Arabs Killed in Kfar Kassem
Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Jerusalem
Transcribed from the clipping
A special commission has recommended the Israel Government pay 5,000 pounds compensation to the heirs of every man and woman killed. The Arabs were returning from the fields the evening of the day the Israeli Army opened the Sinai drive. Unaware of a curfew imposed on the area in their absence, they panicked when suddenly faced by an Israeli military patrol which ordered them to halt. They turned and ran and the soldier, under orders of a lieutenant, opened fire.
