PLO Plans Military Training for Children
The Palestine Liberation Organization will hold a one-month course in military training for 1,000 Palestinian children, the United Arab Emirates newspaper Al Ittihad said Thursday.
The paper said in a report from Aden that the boys and girls all live in Arab states and include for the first time 100 children from Egypt.
The paper quoted PLO sources as saying the course will take place at the Palestinian Al Yarmouk camp in the South Yemeni capital next week.
South Yemen is one of several Arab states where the PLO has forces.
