Israel to Press Ahead With Security Fence
(VOA News) - Prime Minister Sharon said Sunday that the planned contours of the security fence to encircle the West Bank will not be altered. He and defense minister Mofaz agreed that the outline of the fence would remain the same but construction of the barrier would concentrate for the moment on what Israeli officials described as "less problematic" sections. Israel says the fence does not constitute a political border and is only being erected to prevent Palestinian terrorists from carrying out more deadly attacks.
