Four Palestinians convicted in Zeevi slaying at Arafat compound
A makeshift court inside Yasser Arafat's Ramallah compound convict s four Palestinians for the killing of Israel's tourism minister Rehavam Zeevi. Israel demands the men be handed over or deported as it tightens its siege around Arafat. Nine youths leave Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity with two monks carrying two decomposed bodies. Palestinian youths are detained as talks continue to end the standoff, while negotiators seek to escort gunmen to Gaza. Israel says the convicts will be tried in Israel and continues to press for surrender of others linked to weapons smuggling from Iran.
