Israeli Premier Nixon To Discuss Peace Talks
Israeli Premier Golda Meir, en route to the United States, said the Libyan airliner downing would not derail talks with President Nixon.

The incident prompted Israel to report licensing issues for a French captain, Bourges, and the government offered ex gratia payments to victims and injuries, while a cabinet communique avoided the word compensation.
