According to the city's Health Department, the incidents of dog attacks on human beings have risen sharply this year.

"I don't know how we'll operate," Okoaye says, worried that such incidents will rise under the new civilian Government.

Despite this, incidents of extramarital affairs are rising.

During this period, "ethno-sectarian incidents" have steadily risen, the report noted.

In 1992-93, violent incidents in schools rose 16 percent, and two students were killed in school buildings.

But in the last eight years, violent incidents and weapons possession have steadily risen.

After the disturbances, incidents rose to more than 25 percent above the level for the same period in 1990.

One of the cities hardest hit by "hate violence" was Cleveland, where incidents rose from 50 in 1985 to 77 in 1986.

At the same time, the number of anti-Israel protests and violent incidents inside the country is sharply rising.

Last year violent incidents rose 9 percent from 1992 when adjusted for fluctuations in the jail population, which decreased 4.7 percent in the same period.
