Meanwhile, air-raid sirens
wailed iin Beirut yesterday asj
two Israeli jets flew high over
the capital early yesterday af-
ternoon, reminding the Lebanese,
once again how easy it is for the
Israeli air force to use their
air space.
Later, Premier Rashid Karami
told reporters that Lebanon was
calling for a Security Council
mee-ing to discuss its protest
against the raids, carried out
against two Palestinian refugee
camps in northern Lebanon and
around the southern town of
Nebatiyeh.
REFERRING to the raids,
Karami said: "This barbaric
action gives a clear picture of
the behavior of this state (Is-
rael) based on racism, aggres-
sion and expansion."
The reported toll from Tues-
day's raids was higher than in
any other Israeli air attacks
this year.
Karami, along with most Leb-
anese press commentators yes-
terday, saw the raids as an
Israeli riposte to the U.N.'s
willingness to admit representa-
tives of the Palestine Liberation
Organization to next month's
debate on -the Palestine ques-
tion.
THE Palestine news agency,
Wafa, called a press conference
here yesterday in which spokes-
man Majed Abou Shrar de-
nounced the raids, saying that
the Israeli attackers dropped
anti-personnel bombs as well ast
high explosives.
Women and children were
among the casualties,, he sa d,
and Lebanese as well as Pales-
tinians were killed.
The spokesman had sharp
words for the United States as
He referred to a new program'
of action to be carried out by
the Palestinian movement in-
side Israel. Without giving de-1
tails he said: "You will soon j
feel the effects of this plan." l
Shrar noted that Israel choseI
to launch the raids when the
domestic security situation in
war-weary Lebanon had im-
proved. Security sources said
there had been no major out-
break of sectarian strife in the,
past 24 hours.
One body had been found in
Beirut, they said. Government:
employes turned up for work
yesterday in greater numbers
than in recent weeks, reflecting
greater confidence in the over-j
all situation.
