Lebanon War Brings High Toll and Diplomat Wounding
A Soviet diplomat was shot in Beirut as fighting resumed between Christian and Moslem militias, ending a week-long truce.

The wounded Russian is Robert Mardirousian, with his condition improving yet possible paralysis. Security forces face calls for a state of emergency as political leaders debate army intervention.
