Gas shells left over from incident
(DPS 88048) -- The four photographs enclosed were taken by
members of the Presiding Bishop's Pastoral Team in the Middle East during a
visit to the historic Mosque of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. The
first (88048/1) shows a fire scorched carpet and pillar which they were
told was damaged by gas grenades which had been fired by Israeli troopers
into the holy site. The latter three show labels which would seem to
indicate US manufacture, and cautions against use of these chemical weapons
indoors and against persons.
