About a dozen Palesti- nian targets were struck by the Israeli raid and it forced the temporary closing of Beirut's Inter- national Airport. Meanwhile, a free-lance journalist who worked for ABC Radio, Sean Toolan, was killed Tuesday in Be- irut as he was walking to his apartment, the New York Times reported. It was un- clear whether he was a vic- tim of one of the many polit- ical groups or of street crim- inals. Last week, a joint patrol by Israelis and rightist militiamen clashed with an Irish battalion of the UN peacekeeping force north of the Israeli border. The patrol was halted as it tried to enter a buffer zone. There were no casualties, and the clash lasted only 30 min- utes. In Washington, the State Department said it was "concerned at the escalation of violence" in Lebanon over the weekend. Department deputy spokesman Alan Rom- burg said the violence in the area would have "a negative impact on dip- lomatic efforts" in Leba- non. But at the same time, he stressed that it would not damage the efforts by special envoy Habib, now in Saudi Arabia, to ease tension over the crisis in Lebanon. Romburg said that the violence over the weekend also would not have any im- pact on the U.S. decision whether to lift the suspen- sion of delivery of four F-16s to Israel imposes after Is- rael destroyed Iraq's nu- clear plant June 7. Habib was in Israel Sun- day on the third round of his mission, begun last May, to defuse the continuing crisis Arabs Observe Ramadan Fast between Israel and Syria over the latter's deployment of SAM-6 anti-aircraft mis- siles in Lebanon. There was no confirma- tion of reports that the U.S. had, in effect, worked out a comprehensive plan to solve the missile crisis. Habib is understood to be trying hard, to win agreement on a package proposal that would ensure Israeli and Chris- tian withdrawals in areas of Lebanon in exchange for removal of the mis- siles. Habib held talks with Lebanese President Elias Sarkis in Beirut and with the Druze leftist leader Walid Jumblatt before coming to Israel. Israel is said to be stick- ing to its demand that Habib speed up his efforts to get the Syrian missiles out of Lebanon. Syria reiterated its determination over the - weekend to keep the mis- siles in place, come what may. Despite Israel's evi- dent impatience over the lack of success by Habib to date, sources in Israel were quoted as saying that no ul- timatums would be given the American envoy during his current visit to Jerusalem. JERUSALEM (JNI) — Moslems throughout the world are observing their month-long fast of Rama- dan in July. It is one of the "Five Pillars of Islam" which is strictly enforced in most Mcislem countries. Ab- stinence from food and drink during the daylight hours will be enforced by police throughout the Mid- dle East. Violators are punished by the traditional lashing or even imprison- ment. In Israel, Prime Minister Menahem Begin wired the Moslem Council his "hope that next year will be a year of prosperity and peace." In the administered ter- ritories, police will enforce Jordanian law against transgressors, who will be prosecuted in local courts. The Military Govern- ment has also agreed to allow the traditional can- non firing to begin and end the daily fast, and will sup- "Son of C. Trojan" ply the necessary explosives with tight usage control.
