U.N. Action Urged To End Arab-Israeli War
The United Nations Security Council met in urgent session at 2 pm EDT to consider further action to halt the Arab Israel war as calls for a cease fire faced noncompliance. A Soviet backed resolution demands immediate end to all military activity by 4 pm EDT Wednesday, with Canada seeking measures to enforce pledges and ensure full compliance. Egypt stated Cairo that it would continue fighting, while diplomats debated the council’s authority and the role of Secretary General Thant.
