A report of alleged Israeli violations of Transjordan territory has been forwarded to U.N. acting mediator Dr. Ralph Bunche, the Amman correspondent of the Sunday Times reported today. He added that “the increasing aggressiveness of Jewish forces near Transjordan’s frontiers will likely lead” to King Abdullah asking for British military aid under the Anglo-Transjordan treaty.
