An 1800 man Lebanese regular army unit moved into southern Lebanon near the Israeli border but halted 10 miles from its objective amid mortar and artillery fire. Christians led by Majors Haddad and Chidiac, backed by Syria, claimed to block the move as UN reports cited tanks and armored vehicles on the highway. The move marks Beirut's first assertion in the area since 1973.
