Peres, in his letter, obtained by Reuters, said the team's report should be submitted only as "findings" and not include "observations," the U.N. term for conclusions. U.N. officials would not comment but some earlier had objected to Israel dictating the structure of the final report.

He also said the report should explicitly mention the word "terror" in relation to events in Jenin. Mention of international humanitarian law must include references to the "right of self-defense" and the "rights to fight terrorism."

"Faced with a relentless battle against terrorism on the one hand and wishing to cooperate with the international community on the other, we are obliged to ensure that our very basic interests, and those of our military and security servicemen, are fully protected," Peres said.
