UN Secretary General cites legal barriers to Israel terms
United Nations Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold reported serious legal barriers to accepting Israel terms for withdrawing from Gaza. He said Israel has not fully complied with General Assembly demands for full troop withdrawal and would keep forces at the Gaza and Sharm el Sheikh entrances until its interests are safeguarded. He suggested UN emergency force could move in after withdrawal, but not assume Israel's proposed civil administration without Egypts consent. Egypt expressed desire to end raids across the armistice line with UN aid, and the assembly planned Monday debate amid possible US and British guidance to deploy the force for stability.
