Statement Comes as Powell Meeting Hangs in the Balance
Though the most brutal phase of the operation seemed over, a major furor was taking shape over the fate of Palestinian men killed in Jenin. The Israeli Army said it intended to bury gunmen in an "enemies' cemetery" in the Jordan Valley, prompting Palestinians to charge that Israel was trying to cover up a "massacre."

In a surprise intervention, the Israeli Supreme Court today ordered the army not to remove bodies of Palestinians from the Jenin camp until the court held a hearing on Sunday. The injunction came in response to a petition from Israeli Arabs. Ahmed Tibi, an Israeli Arab legislator, argued that removing bodies from the city was a violation of international law.

The court also ordered state prosecutors to respond to charges that the army had buried bodies in a mass grave, as charged by Palestinians.
