Warn Israel on
Training Mishap
Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News
JERUSALEM — Israel was
censured Tuesday by the Israel
Jordan Mixed Armistice Com-
mission because its troops train-
ing near the Jordanian border
had inadvertently fired across
the line into a Jordanian vil-
lage.
The MAC charged that two
artillery shells had landed in
the village of Beitsra on April
2. The UN chairman of the unit
called for strict measures to
prevent recurrences of such in-
cidents.
Israel Completes Work
in Lake Huleh Area;
Tension Subsides
TEL AVIV (JTA)—Work on
the last drainage channel in
the area south of Lake Huleh
was ended and water f r o m
flooded marshland in the area
is again being diverted into
the main channel of Lake Hu-
leh.
Tension subsided in the area
for the first time in several
weeks. Syrian farmers and
shepherds were seen at work
on the opposite slope of the
valley. At least one Israeli died
and a number were wounded as
result of Syrian attempts to
interfere with the canal dig-
ging. Syrian casualties are un-
known in the two-day tank and
artillery duel last week.
The work was accomplished
by heavy excavators and ar-
mored bulldozers brought to
the marsh site after- both par-
ties had agreed to accept a
United Nations survey, which
changed the original course of
the ditch by as much as three
to 15 feet along a 250-foot length
of the canal. The old ditch was
immediately filled in.
