Israel Extends Time On Syrian Israeli Missile Crisis
Prime Minister Begin says the United States has more time to resolve the Syrian Israeli missile standoff, while Syria warns an armed clash is unavoidable. In Lebanon a shoulder fired anti aircraft missile was launched from Damour near Beirut as Israeli jets flew nearby. Habib was given additional time to pursue removal of missiles in Bekaa Valley and across the border. Begin asserts Israel is patient and insists on missile removal. Floodwaters recede in western Montana but hundreds remain stranded as more rain is forecast. Evacuations continue along the Clark Fork River near Missoula and other flooded areas. The Clark Fork crested at 13.3 feet, above flood stage, with extensive property damage in Helena Valley.
