FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1994
HA'ARETZ reported that a senior American official recently told
Prime Minster Yitzhak Rabin and other senior Israeli officials that
Iran and North Korea are continuing to develop missiles that are
capable of striking Israel from Iran.
The Prime Minister said that he knew the United States was able
to curb North Korean and Iranian efforts on this matter in the
past.
DAVAR reported that North Korea has agreed to Teheran's request
to hold a short-range test in Iran for the new missile. A senior
Israeli officer said Thursday that Israel is unable to prevent
North Korean and Iranian efforts to produce these missiles, but can
only monitor the developments and try to prevent them through a
third party.
MA'ARIV also reported that Prime Minister Rabin said during his
visit to South Korea that Israel is asking the U.S. to act against
North Korea's development and sale of long-range surface-to-surface
missiles.
