ISRAEL-SYRIAN PROBLEMS DISCUSSED BY U. N. TRUCE CHIEF
Israel Army Chief of Staff General Moshe Dayan received Maj. Gen. Vagn Bennike, United Nations truce supervisor, this morning at the latter’s request.
The two men discussed implementation of the decision of the Israel-Syrian Mixed Armistice Commission of March 16 which condemned both sides for exchanging fire on Lake Tiberias, but which upheld Israel’s claim to sovereignty over all of the lake and a ten-meter wide strip along its northeastern bank.
