Israeli leaders clash over war risks and Cairo occupation
Israeli Foreign Minister Abba Eban attacked Defense Minister Moshe Dayan for forecasting a new war and scolded former Air Force Chief Ezer Weizman over occupying Cairo in a crisis. Premier Golda Meir warned internal divisions threaten Israel more than Arab adversaries amid strikes and a National Religious party withdrawal threat. Israeli forces killed eight guerrillas in two Gaza and Golan clashes with no Israeli casualties reported. Eban urged reopening the Suez Canal under an interim Cairo accord, noting slim chances, and highlighted Soviet pressure via the Egypt pact.
