ASSOCIATED PRESS ALGIERS The ambush killing of the former head of one of, Algeria's most radical militant groups eliminated the mastermind of a two string of terrorist attacks in Algeria and France. But while Djamel Zitouni's demise was partly due to an internal power struggle, the Armed Islamic Group's brutality hasn't changed.
It is launching fresh a attacks in a insurgency that has killed 60,000 Algerians. Zitouni's successor and former lieutenant, Antar Zouabri, has been blamed for dozens of killings in recent weeks. Militants have slain bikini -clad bathers, people not strictly observing Islam's ban on alcohol, and 12 workers on a bus. The group announced Saturday that Zitouni was killed July 16 in Medea, south of Algiers, in an ambush believed launched by the army. He had been ousted from the leadership days before.
There was no immediate comment from the army backed government of President Liamine Zeroual, which the militants want to overthrow to install a fundamentalist Islamic regime. Zitouni, 29, became head of the group in October 1994 after his predecessor was killed also in an army ambush. He was believed to have plotted the December 1994 hijacking of an Air France jetliner as well as a wave of bombings in France last year that left eight dead and 160 injured. The militants attacked the French for their financial support of the former colony. The two countries maintain close trade ties.
But the kidnap-slayings of seven French Trappist monks in May led to Zitouni's ouster by militants who felt he had gone too far, observers said. Kashmir bomb kills 6, injures 17 ASSOCIATED PRESS ANANTNAG, India A bomb in a motor scooter exploded near the headquarters of a Muslim rebel group in Kashmir, killing six people and wounding 17, police and witnesses said yesterday. Clashes between army soldiers and rebels have killed 17 others since Saturday throughout the northern state, where Muslim separatists are fighting for an independent homeland. The powerful blast Saturday evening in Anantnag, 40 kilometres south of the state capital, Srinagar, damaged 26 houses, said Ghulam Ahmed Bhatt, a police official. Twelve rebels and five civilians were killed in violence in other parts of Kashmir yesterday, the government said.
In the worst incident, soldiers gunned down 12 rebels who fired at them in the village of Kurali Parey, about 55 km north of Srinagar. Arson stokes factionalism in Hasidic village in N.Y. ROBERT HANLEY NEW YORK TIMES KIRYAS JOEL, N.Y. For Jewish mothers and their newborns from New York City and as far away as Montreal and Toronto, the Hilltop MaternityConvalescent Centre was a serene haven recovery from childbirth. And for new mothers in this Hasidic village of 12,000 ultra Satmars, the centre offered a few days' respite from the nasty political and religious infighting that years ago split Kiryas Joel into two angry camps.
It was a neutral sanctuary, open to all regardless of their loyalties in the squabble dividing the village's neighborhoods. Arson has now shut it down. The kitchen and main entry are destroyed. Three of the nine bedrooms for new mothers are a dark jumble of watersoaked bedding, soot-streaked walls and buckled floors. More symbolically, the crime has reduced the centre to just another element in the angry, sometimes violent factionalism of Kiryas Joel, about 50 miles northwest of Manhattan.
Only the heroics of a maid and four overnight nurses, the centre's officials say, spared the village a tragedy. They roused 34 mothers in the centre early July 21 and helped them flee, then managed to hand 35 infants in bassinets through windows on the ground-floor nursery to mothers outside. As they did, flames were devouring a meeting hall on the opposite side of the building, perhaps 50 yards away. State police say they believe the fire was set in a basem*nt storage closet of the meeting hall hours before a fundraising event was to be held there by a Brooklyn rabbi, Chezkel Roth, who sympathizes with a dissident faction of villagers who have clashed for years with the majority that runs the town government. As police press their investigation, old animosities are surging again.
Members of the dissident faction who operated the nonprofit centre said thugs in the majority had set the fire. "They almost killed," said Zalman Waldman, who is administrator of the centre, Yeled Shashyim. "To burn up a centre with newborn babies, to do such a cowardly thing, the Nazi Germans weren't worse. Thank the nurses no tragedy happens." Some in the majority faction scoff. "You think people in the majority would put their wives in danger?" Joel Morgenstern said.
"A normal man is not going to burn the building where his wife goes." The village's deputy mayor, Abraham Weider, a lightning rod for dissidents' criticism, said his daughter-in-law and newborn granddaughter were at the centre when the fire occurred. How could he or his followers, he asked, be responsible for the blaze? The village was outwardly serene on Friday, but arguing abounded, as it has for years. Dissidents denounced majority as a cult that controls the town government and the village synagogue and has for years smothered any dissent. They say they cannot build their own synagogue and have been barred from visiting the graves of their relatives in the village cemetery. They insist that they are not the village dissidents because they remain loyal to the late Joel Teitelbaum, grand rebbe of the Satmars, who died nearly 17 years ago.
His nephew, Moses, succeded him as grand rebbe. The split in the town started then, both sides agree. Those who remained loyal to Joel Teitelbaum and his widow, Feige, started encountering criticism. In time, they organized their own yeshiva, which now has about 400 students, they said. They still want their own synagogue.
