Israel gives
tentative
approval to
U.S. plan for
Beirut peace
(Continued from Page 5)
accept the first contingent of Palestine
Liberation Organization fighters from
Beirut.
Tunisian Foreign Minister Beji Caid
Essebsi said President Habib
Bourguiba had approved the plan, but
he did not indicate how many would be
in the group or when they would arrive.
The official Syrian Arab News Agen-
cy said in Damascus that President
Hafez Assad's government was willing
to host some of the guerrillas. That
would be a reversal of Assad's stand.
The agency gave few details but said
the decision to accept the PLO fighters
was taken at a meeting of syria's ruling
Baath party.
AN ISRAELI Cabinet communique
said another problem holding up
Israel's full acceptance was a plan for a
vanguard of French troops to be
deployed in west Beirut at the start of
the evacuation.
As the Cabinet met, Israeli warplanes
resumed bombing missions on
guerrillas in west Beirut, and also
knocked out a Syrian SAM-9 missile
battery in eastern Lebanon's Bekaa
Valley, the military command said.
"Israel stands by its decision not to
permit the Syrians to move ground-to-
air missile bateries into the Lebanon
region," said a command announ-
cement. It was the third air strike
against Syrian missiles since the cease-
fire with Syria June 11.
THE ISRAELIS deployed 40 tanks
and armored personnel carriers around
the port of Byblos, 22 miles north of
Beirut, apparently to keep U.S. and
French ships from sending
peacekeepers ashore before final ap-
proval of the withdrawal plan,
Lebanon's state radio reported.
Israel's jets destroyed a battery of
Syrian SAM-9 anti-aircraft missiles
moved into eastern Lebanon's Bekaa
Valley in defiance of Israeli warnings to
keep the weapons out, the Tel Aviv
command said.
The jets also attacked Yasser
Arafat's Fakhani neighborhood in west
Beirut, the adjacent Sabra shantytown,
and the Chatilla and Bourj-el-Barajneh
camps.
