Israel Cabinet meets after shelling by Palestinian guerrillas
Israel held a four hour special session to plan its next move after Palestinian guerrillas shelled northern Israel for the first time in 10 months in retaliation for Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon. Lebanese officials said at least 16 were killed and 58 wounded in Sunday's air raids. A PLO official in Beirut said the shelling was designed to tell Israel that they are ready to answer whenever attacked. Israel reported no losses in the reprisal, sending jets on reconnaissance flights over southern Lebanon and gunboats patrolling the coast at daybreak.
