Panel Demands Conditions on U S Aid to El Salvador
The House Foreign Affairs Committee approved a six point amendment to require the Reagan administration to certify that El Salvador's ruling junta under Jose Napoleon Duarte is promoting democracy and not abusing rights before any U S military aid or advisers. The measure, 26 to 6, links aid to human rights and political reforms while signaling potential aid withdrawal ifconditions are unmet.

Syria deployed four SAM-6 launchers in eastern Lebanon near Rayak airbase to deter Israeli jets after two Syrian helicopters were shot down near Zahle. Israeli raids on Palestinian guerrilla positions continued south of the border as rockets were fired into Galilee. Diplomats warned war risk rises if a Syrian missile downs an Israeli aircraft.
