Israel rejects U.S. demand to withdraw from West Bank towns
In Jerusalem Israel refused the United States call to pull troops from six Palestinian towns in the West Bank. Two Palestinians were killed near Tulkarem as Israeli forces returned fire after entering the towns following the assassination of Tourism Minister Rehavam Zeevi. Israel demanded Arafat turn over Zeevi's killers and curb rogue groups but may pull back some troops as a gesture to Washington amid a sharp diplomatic standoff.
