Two Israeli Pilots Captured; Report Russians
Beaten in Air Battle; Air Raids Uninterrupted
TEL AVIV (JTA) — An Israel
Air Force Phantom jet was -shot
down by ground fire in a raid on
a Soviet missile base in the central
section of the Suez Canal zone Mon-
day. The two pilots were seen bail-
ing out over Egyptian territory. An
Egyptian army spokesman later
confirmed that the two were cap-
tured. They were identified by an
Israeli spokesman as Yigael Scho-
chat and Moshe Goldwasser.
Israel conceded the loss of the
aircraft which it said was the 16th
Israeli plane down on the Egyp-
tian front since the Six-Day War.
Egypt has lost 111 planes in the
same period, according to Israel's
count.
Other Israel air force jets con-
tinued to blast Egyptian positions
in the canal zone Tuesday and re-
turned safely to their bases. A
storage shed at Kibbutz Manera in
Upper Galilee was sabotaged early
Tuesday morning by infiltrators
from across the Lebanese border.
Mortars were fired at Metulla from
Lebanese territory. Two Israeli
soldiers were wounded when an
Israeli position on Mt. Hermon
was fired on from Lebanon. Le-
banon said one civilian was killed
by Israeli return fire.
The capture of the two downed
Israeli pilots brought to 14 the
number of Israeli pesoners held
by Egypt. Nine are air force per-
sonnel. The other five include
an Israel army officer, Dan Avi-
ean, two sergeants and two civil-
ian canteen workers captured by
Egyptian forces in commando
raids across the Suez Canal.
Rumors persisted that four Egyp-
tian MIG-21s shot down by Israeli
fighters over the Suez Canal last
week were piloted by Russians.
One report said the U.S. State
Department and Israel are treat-
ing the matter with "extreme cau-
canal zone. The Russian Air Force
commander arrived in Egypt on
Saturday but a tight lid has been
clamped down on details of his
visit.
Time magazine reported that it
learned last Thursday, the day be-
fore Israel agreed to a cease fire
in the Middle East, some Soviet
pilots flew Egyptian air force
MIG-21 fighter planes against
Israeli jets.
A military spokesman here told
the Jewish Telegraphic Agency
that the identity of pilots flying
any planes can be determined only
if their conversations with ground
control have been intercepted and
taped. But the military officials
refused to disclose whether they
had picked up any such conver
sations in Russian or in Russian-
accented English. The spokesman
also told the JTA that combat
tactics are not a clue to the identity
of the flyers because the Egyptian
pilots have been trained by Soviet
airmen and use Soviet methods.
He added that Soviet pilots would
not fly in Egyptian units but. only
in Soviet units which are based
on a minimum of eight aircraft
for a sortie.
Israel air force jets attacked
Egyptian military positions along
the Suez Canal Wednesday and
blasted guerrilla and Jordanian
army positions opposite the Bel-
sail Valley in an hour-long at-
tack Tuesday night.
A military spokesman said all
aircraft returned safely from all
missions. The raid on Jordan was
in response to an artillery and mor-
tar attack on Kfar Ruppin. Five
Israeli high school students were
wounded in a heavy mortar attack
on Metulla from Lebanese ter-
ritory. Three were hospitalized and

River and at Djabel Rouss on the
slopes of Mt. Hermon near the
Lebanese border. There were no
Israeli casualties.
An Israel Army civilian employe
was wounded Saturday during an
exchange of fire with Egyptian
forces in the Suez Canal zone.
Several Katyusha rockets were
fired Saturday night at Shaar
Hagolan settlement but caused no
casualties. A 20-year-old Israeli
soldier, Haim My of Jerusalem,
was killed Thursday in an ex-
change : of Israeli-Egyptian fire
along the Suez Canal and Ovadia
Shaul, also 20, of Haifa died on
Thursday of wounds suffered in
a similar exchange six months ago.
Another soldier whose name was
not disclosed, was injured Thurs-
day.
The army reported a sharp drop
in military and civilian casualties
during July compared to the pre-
vious month. A total of 10 soldiers
and four civilians were killed as
a result of enemy activity on all
fronts compared to 43 soldiers and
civilians killed during June.
The Suez Canal front continued
to account for the heaviest cas-
ualties with six soldiers killed and
40 wounded between July 1 and 31.
Two soldiers and four civilians
were killed at El Mamma on the
Jordanian front. One soldier was
killed and one was wounded on
the Syrian front. One soldier was
killed and four soldiers and four
civilians were wounded in the
Gaza strip.
On the Lebanese front, 11 sol-
diers and five civilians were
wounded but no fatalities were re-
ported during July.
