The Israel-Jordan Mized Armistice Commission today decided to send a team of investigators to the scene of coordinated attacks on three villages in Southern Israel last night. The inquiry team will be composed of Israelis and United Nations observers.
The meeting, which was called on the demand of the Israelis, also discussed a Jordanian complaint. The Israelis reported to the mixed unit that one woman had been killed and two women and three children wounded by bullets and grenade splinters during the attacks by raiders whose tracks led to Jordan territory.
