Washington reports the Sinai early warning system has operated effectively for two months with fewer personnel than expected but at more than double the anticipated first year cost. The first progress report notes no untoward incidents since sensor fields and three U.S. watch stations began in late February and cites revised startup and operating costs. Kontos says 174 Americans would be needed, rarely more than 150 present, with final buildings completed. Ford calls the system an important peace investment contributing to regional stability.
