Palestinians from the occupied terri
tories. It marked the first time the
United States voted against Israel in
the council since 1981.
The United States is Israel’s main
defender at the United Nations and
usually wields its veto power on be
half of the Jewish state.
But Israel’s crackdown on riots in
the occupied territories has pro
voked strong criticism in the United
States. On Dec. 22, the United States
rebuked Israel by abstaining from a
Security Council vote condemning
the crackdown.
On Tuesday it joined the other 14
members of the council in calling on
Israel not to deport nine Palestinian
activists.
Israel has defended the expul
sions as necessary to prevent more
unrest in the West Bank and Gaza
Strip, which it captured from Egypt
and Jordan in the 1967 Middle East
war. Since rioting broke Dec. 8, Is
raeli troops have fatally shot at least
24 Palestinians.
X lllV-jTLII 1 1(11 It),
The latest person died Tuesday,
when Israeli soldiers in the Gaza
Strip open fire to disperse hundreds
of rioters on a march trom the home
of one of the nine deportees.
Israeli Ambassador Benjamin Ne
tanyahu told the Security Council all
nine Palestinians scheduled to be de
ported are instigators of unrest and
affiliated with terrorist groups.
He said the council was playing a
“rigged game."
“We’ve never had a Security
Council convene to condemn the
murder of a Jew,” he said. “Not
once.”
The council met Tuesday evening
at the request of Jordan, Israel’s
neighbor.
Shakei Arabiat, a Jordanian
resentative to the United Nat
defended the nine Palestinians
"They cannot be deported iV
their own land,” Arabia! said
least four of the Palestinians art!
pealing the deportation onij
which were issued Sunday.
I he resolution also says the:
portations would violate the li
Geneva Conventions, which prolj
any forcible transfers or (leper,
lions of protected civilians fromli
cupied territories.
The United States hascailedp.
lie Iv on Israel to refrain from the:
portations.

Crews try to supply water
for residents after oil spill
PITTSBURGH (AP) — School
closed for 20,000 pupils and 15,000
suburban residents were without wa
ter Tuesday while crews scrambled
to jury-rig water supplies three days
after a million-gallon oil spill on the
Monongahela River.
“This is a nightmare come true,”
said May’s Manor nursing home
owner Joyce May as she moved 37 el
derly patients out of a steam-heated
building where the Robinson Town
ship Municipal Authority was forced
to cut off water.
“It’s terrible.” she said as the pa
tients were led to an adjacent gas-
heated building. “We’ve had to wash
down some of the elderly patients
with cold water, and it’s terrible,”
The Robinson Township author
ity, with only a 24-hour water re
serve, closed its Ohio River water in
take Sunday, a day after an Ashland
Oil Co. diesel fuel tank collapsed.
Ashland said 3.5 million gallons of
the smelly oil gushed from the bro
ken tank upstream from Pittsburgh
and an estimated one million gallons
flowed over a dike.
Meanwhile, the head of Ashland
Oil acknowledged Tuesday that the
crumpled tank was built without
written permits and did not undergo
standard tests, but he said there was
“This is a nightmare come
true. It’s terrible. We’ve
had to wash down some of
the elderly patients with
cold water, and it’s terri
ble. ”
Joyce May, nursing home
owner
as yet no proof that those failures
were the cause of the accident.
John Hall, Ashland chairman and
chief executive officer, said he was
sorry for the accident and the com
pany would pay for cleanup and
some related costs. The work is ex
pected to cost millions of dollars.
“We’re doing everything we know
how to clean up the damage as rap
idly as possible,” Hall said. “I want to
apologize to the people of the Pitts
burgh area for the inconvenience
they have suffered as the result of
this incident.”
The diesel oil flowed into the Mo
nongahela, which joins with the Alle
gheny River in downtown Pittsburgh
to form the Ohio River.
The Robinson Township authori
ty’s 15,000 customers were forced to
lug buckets, tubs and jugs to loca
tions where the National Guard,
state and Allegheny County officials
had placed water tanks.
Floating booms were placed on
the Monongahela to stop tne oil. but
some oil escaped and floated down
the Ohio River past East Liverpool,
Ohio. That city closed its Ohio River
water intakes when oil was detected
Tuesday and began using a 36-hour
reserve supply for 30,000 residents.
At a news conference. Hall said
the cause of the tank collapse was
unknown. Battelle Institute of Co
lumbus, Ohio, had l)eeu hired to do
an independent investigation.
“Construction of the lank was Ixr-
gun and completed on verbal com
munication with the authorities,”
Hall said. "I wish our people would
have pursued the application more
diligently. I do not know if we were
in compliance with the law or not."
Under Pennsylvania law, con
struction of a tank holding fuel must
be approved by the county’s fire
marshal's office. Officials in the of
fice said that no written permit had
been filed, and Allegheny County
Fire Marshal Martin Jacobs said
Tuesday that he knew of no verbal
communication on the construction.
