Citing Israeli Intelligence, Panama Says 1994 Plane Crash Was Terror Attack
(Reuters) Elida Moreno - Panama's President Juan Carlos Varela said on Monday a 1994 plane explosion that killed 21 people, most of them Jewish, was the result of a terrorist attack and called for the case to be re-opened. Varela said Israel provided reports late last year about the plane crash. The 1994 crash, whose victims included prominent Jewish Panamanian businessmen, came soon after a bomb at a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires killed 85 people.
