Egypt Bars Israel From Suez Canal Under 1888 Pact
Egypt will bar Israel from using the Suez Canal citing the Constantinople Convention of 1888 as the basis. A government spokesman confirmed the move as Cairo reassures Arab radicals that Sadat’s decision to reopen the canal does not end the state of war. Ishan Abdel Kaddous of Al Ahram noted Sadat extended the UN peacekeeping force in Sinai by three months.
