Israel sources asserted today that the ruling yesterday of the Syrian-Israel Mixed Armistice Commission condemning Israel’s demolition of the Arab village in the demilitarized zone southeast of Lake Tiberias contradicted the flags of the United Nations observers on the incident.
The commission, meeting without attendance of the Israel representatives, also condemned. Israel yesterday for alleged overflights of jet planes in Syrian air space. Israel refused to take part in the meeting on grounds that the zones are sovereign Israel territory concerning which Syria has no standing. The resolutions were proposed by Syria. Because Israel was absent, no counter-resolution was submitted against intervention in the zone by Syrian military forces.
