Our comrades made their demands known to the Zionist
authorities. All along they were assuring the passengers that
they would not be harmed. A passenger, Sidi Edmond, later
told reporters that «the take over of the bus started when one
of the fedayeen threatened the driver with a hand grenade ask-

trained inside the country and had obtained their weapons
from within». Obviously, this statement is in contradiction with
the usual enemy propaganda which claims that the comman-
dos come from outside, and mainly from Lebanon.
