Israel Hesitates as Sadat Proposes Suez Reopening
Israeli Deputy Premier Yigal Allon welcomed Sadat's proposal for reopening the Suez Canal as a partial accord but warned against a plan that weakens Israel's Sinai defences. Egypt would pull from Sinai with troops moving into vacated areas, a stance likely to be rejected by hawks in the Israeli cabinet. Separately, Palestinian guerrillas attacked the Trans Arabian Pipeline spur to Jordan's Zerka refinery, temporarily disrupting 12,000 barrels per day without affecting the main line.
