Some were members of the Fatah organization of Yasir Arafat, and some from his security forces, the general said.

He was shot Tuesday evening by gunmen believed here to have been his rivals in a power struggle within the local Fatah organization.

The shootings followed an explosion that killed a senior member of Mr. Arafat's Fatah organization in the West Bank.

The marchers belonged to a branch of Mr. Arafat's Fatah organization.

Clashes were also reported between those opposed to the conference and supporters of the PLO-mainstream Fatah organization.

She joined the Fatah organization in 1959, becoming the party's first female member.
