Helicopter crash kills two Marines during Kuwait drill
A U S Marine AH1 W Cobra crashed during joint drills near the Kuwaiti Iraqi border eight miles south of the frontier. Both pilots Capt. John A Beving and 1st Lt. David L Jones, based at Camp Pendleton California, were killed. The aircraft was unarmed and the cause is under investigation. In Israel, government plans to amend the 1986 law would end illegal meetings with the PLO while maintaining a boycott of the organization.

Rebels shell Kabul in worst assault since last April
Rebels led by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar shelled Kabul for about 12 hours, inflicting at least 1,000 casualties before government forces claimed to retake the positions. The attack, the bloodiest since the regime change, sparked a power struggle among rival rebel groups after 14 years of civil war. In separate reports, Nevada wildfires expanded but were encircled by firefighters as winds waned, with containment expected by Tuesday and costs projected at about 2 million dollars.. Firefighters also contained a 3,200-acre blaze in Idaho near Salmon River canyon ignited by lightning, threatening small communities.

Air bag saves life in weekend crash near Canton
Helen Wilgus, wife of minister and former Chrysler TV ad participant, survived a weekend crash when her car was struck on a slippery Ohio road. She credits the air bag and seat belt for her injuries, while the other driver, 21-year-old Joseph L. Newton, died. Wilgus noted both crashes were on wet roads and blamed the other driver. Her husband had previously appeared in a 1990 ad claiming a prayer and an air bag saved his life.
