Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations, Yosef Tekoah replied that Israel could not accept the resolution "because it concerns a question which under the cease-fire regime falls under Israel's jurisdiction." Israeli papers accused U.N. Secretary-General Thant of playing into the hands of the Arabs, "who wish to sabotage the mission of Middle East peace envoy Gunnar Jarring," one paper said. Meanwhile, an Israeli army spokesman in Tel Aviv reported a desert clash seven miles north of Jericho and said 13 Arab saboteurs were killed and three Israeli soldiers were "hit." He did not say whether the Israelis "I think the acts which were committed by the lawless group which invaded the administration building were clearly acts of anarchy and the perpetrators are lawless and cannot be dealt with in such a fashion to make any agreement with them," Shocknessy said.
