Israel on JERUSALEM (AP) Saturday accused the U.N. Security Council of taking a view of the killing of four Arabs by its soldiers, saying the troops were responding to an armed attack. An Israeli general, meanwhile, suggested that a recent rise in the number of Arabs killed by troops in the occupied territories was due to new army shooting regulations designed to rout armed Palestinians attacking Israelis. The U.N. statement concerned a clash Wednesday at a refugee camp market in the occupied Gaza one-sid- . ed Strip, in which Israeli troops fired on a crowd after being attacked by firebombs. U.N. officials and Arab reporters said four Palestinians were killed and more than 50 wounded at Rafah. The Palestine Liberation Organization said that at least 10 Palestinians were killed. It was the highest death toll this year in a clash between Arabs and Israeli soldiers in the Gaza Strip and West Bank, where Palestinians have been rebelling against Israeli rule since 1987.

She said she would work to overcome fears of a split in the church that her candidacy had prompted, and she invited critics to meet with her. She replaces the current bishop, Peter Krusche, who will retire on July 31. He may be forced to surrender his two Cabinet jobs, prime minister and defense minister. But few lawmakers are demanding that he resign as president. "Even the most reckless critics realize clearly that the president is the only guarantee against loss of stability," said Sergei B.

Gen. Philippe Morillon, deputy commander of the U.N. force, told the troops. The contingent's arrival followed some of the heaviest fighting in Croatia since a U.N. truce took effect Jan. 3. About 14,000 U.N. peacekeepers are to be deployed in Croatia by April 25. Advance teams are already in place. Up to 10,000 people have died in ethnic warfare in Croatia since the republic declared independence last June.
