The Israel Cabinet met today in the residence here of Premier David Ben Gurion and discussed latest developments at the United Nations. At the conclusion of the meeting a communique was issued stating that “instructions had been sent the Israel delegation at the United Nations.”
Observers here considered the announcement significant. They noted that even after the passage of the two General Assembly resolutions the government had not announced that new instructions had been sent to Ambassador Abba Eban. Today’s announcement followed Monday evening’s lengthy conference between Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold and Mr. Eban.
