— Israel officially denied Syrian reports of an air fight during the Israeli raid on terrorist bases near Sidon and Nabatiya Sunday. The army spokesman said that if a Syrian MIG-23 plane crashed, as reported from Damascus, it was certainly not the result of a dogfight, as none took place, and no Israeli planes were downed in the non-existent air battle.
