Mubarak warns against Israeli attempts to settle the Palestinians in Jordan

In press statements issued on Saturday in Cairo, the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak strongly denied that Syria has any intention to provoke war in the Middle East region. He criticized what has been rumored on that the Hizbullah Party threatens Israel's security by Katyusha missiles.

The Egyptian president also warned against the Israeli attempts which aim at settling the Palestinian refugees in Jordan, considering that expelling the Palestinians from their homeland to any other place is the greatest danger to Israel.

Replying to a question on whether the Iraqi president will target Israel if the US will direct a blow against Iraq, President Mubarak said he did not hear any statement by the Iraqi president that he will strike Israel.
