UN report flags Israel nonwithdrawal from Gaza and Gulf of Aqaba
Dag Hammarskjold closed an official report to the General Assembly stating Israel still refuses to withdraw from the Gaza Strip and the Egyptian shore of the Gulf of Aqaba. The assembly had already urged withdrawal behind the 1949 armistice line and Israel pressed for guarantees against raids and new blockades. Abba Eban warned that a nonbelligerency pledge from Egypt would matter but must be enforceable.
