London officials said a landing could happen as Buenos Aires contemplates London's latest peace talks offer at the United Nations, with both sides casting doubt on a cease-fire.

Thatcher’s war cabinet convened as officials briefed on military and diplomatic developments. Foreign Secretary Pym reported on Luxembourg talks where seven partners disappointed Britain.
