Explosion showers Arafat in debris
Explosions rocked Yasser Arafat’s besieged headquarters today, including one blast that showered the Palestinian leader with debris, as Israeli troops flattened every main building around him with explosives, tanks and bulldozers.
Arafat, a few aides and about 20 men wanted by Israel were pinned to a few rooms in a wing of the main office building in the West Bank town of Ramallah - the only main structure left standing in the once sprawling complex.
