Delay Sought in Release of Abducted Personnel
The UN Security Council debated a four nation draft urging release of abducted Syrian and Lebanese military personnel and called for renewed efforts by Kurt Waldheim and Carlos Ortiz de Rozas. Diplomatic sources cited parallel hostage issues with Israelis held by Syria and Lebanese held by Israel delaying progress. Israel opposed a separate talks track and Egypt rejected a general prisoner exchange. The Israeli ambassador boycotted the session on orders from Jerusalem.
