Israel Air Force jets struck at terrorist targets in Syrian-controlled areas of Lebanon today for the second successive day. A military spokesman said two bases were hit in the region of Baalbek in the northem Bekaa valley.
One was described as a former camp of the Lebanese police, taken over several months ago by prolranian terrorists and Palestine Liberation Organization dissidents opposed to Yasir Arafat. The other was a former hotel which the Israelis said was used as a training center for both groups. They were said to have been the bases from which the terrorists launched the October 23 car-bomb attackson U.S. and French military headqucrters in Beirut and attacks on Israeli installations in Sidon.
Beirut Radio reported heavy casualties resulted from the raids. The terrorists were said to be Lebanese Shiite Moslem followers of the Ayatollah Khomeini and Iranian volunteers fighting with the PLO. Israeli planes struck yesterday at PLO dissidents in Behamdoun on the Beirut-Damascus highway.
