HEBRON, West Bank, Nov. 16 -- Israeli tanks and armored personnel carriers
roared into Hebron today as military forces took control of the city,
clamped a curfew on its residents and arrested 40 Palestinians in response
to an ambush by Palestinian gunmen Friday night that killed 12 military and
security officers.

Israeli officials initially described the shooting -- the worst in this
violence-prone southern West Bank city in nearly a decade -- as a massacre
of Jewish settlers walking home after Sabbath prayers at a religious
shrine. But military officials said today that the dozen men who were
killed and the 15 injured were soldiers, border patrolmen or Jewish
settlement security officers. No unarmed civilian worshipers were killed or
wounded, they said. Government and military officials declined to explain
why they had said the casualties were worshipers…
