U N Debates Holy Land Raids Amid Security Council tensions
The United Nations Security Council opens a debate on Israel and Arab border raids in Palestine. Western nations seek a single agenda item while Andrei Vishinsky presides. Jordan and Israel send ambassadors not on the council to their respective governments. Jordan accuses Israel of a March 28 Kalin village attack in which nine Arabs were killed and 19 wounded. Israel counters with four armistice violations, including a fatal March 15 bus attack near the Scorpion Pass. The dispute centers on armistice breaches and access to holy sites in the Jordanian section of divided Jerusalem.
