Israel Denies Justifying Kibya Raid as Reprisal
An authoritative source urges Israel to abandon attempts to frame the Kibya incident as a justified reprisal and to help punish those responsible. The Western censure looms over the forthcoming resolution’s wording on border killings. Britain’s Sir Gladwyn Jebb brands the raid a threat to regional security and criticizes Israel for failing to punish perpetrators. U S Chief delegate Lodge Jr says evidence shows armed Israeli forces conducted the Libya attack and supports Britain's stance. Israel claims local village defense forces carried out the raid in retaliation for a Jordanian attack on Yahud.
