| The photo taken on Nov. 10 shows the site
chosen as the cemetery for Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat in the
southwest courtyard of his Muqata headquarters in the West Bank city of
Ramallah. The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Executive Committee
and the Fatah Central Committee held a meeting on early Wednesday and
accepted an Egyptian offer to hold funeral for Arafat in Cairo in case of
his death before his body was transferred to Ramallah for burial.
Subsequently, an engineering team consisted of bulldozers, grabs, cranes
and trucks entered the Muqata on Wednesday afternoon and got prepared to
build the cemetery. (Xinhua photo) | |
