Children Take Cow Hostage

KFAR SHOUBA, Lebanon (Reuters) - Lebanese children caught
an Israeli cow Sunday which wandered over the tense
international border and said they would only hand it back in
exchange for goats of theirs which had drifted over to Israel.

Witnesses said four children chased and captured the cow
near the village of Kfar Shouba on the volatile frontier.

Later, they told U.N. peacekeepers who came to try to coax
them to hand over the cow that they would only swap it for the
dozens of goats they had lost, having apparently got the idea
from the swaps of human prisoners demanded by Lebanese
guerrillas.

Lebanon's Hizbollah guerrillas captured three Israeli
soldiers and an army reservist colonel on the border last
month.

The guerrilla group said it would swap the four captives
with Arab prisoners in Israeli jails.
