U.S. Gives Israel New Army Base
(UPI) The U.S. Tuesday delivered a sprawling storage base it has built for the Israeli army. Nachshonim is the third base the U.S. has built for Israel under an agreement reached during the 1998 Wye River talks. Israel then undertook to turn West Bank areas over to the PA and the Clinton administration undertook to provide $1.2 billion to replace facilities Israel would be vacating. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers managed the $127 million project that includes 210 buildings.
