Six Palestinians to stand trial in a deadly 1982 attack on a Jewish deli in Paris

A lawyer in France says a terrorism court has ordered six suspected Palestinian militants to go on trial for an attack 43 years ago at a restaurant and deli in the Jewish quarter of Paris that killed six people. Attackers threw grenades and then sprayed machine-gun fire into the Jo Goldenberg restaurant on Aug. 9, 1982 in the deadliest antisemitic attack in France since World War II, which also injured 22 people. Two of those killed were Americans. David Père, a lawyer for victims, says that although four of the suspects remain abroad and likely would be tried in absentia, investigating judges have issued an order for a trial, which could begin early next year.
