Jordan today submitted a complaint to the Mixed Armistice Commission charging that six Israeli policemen from the Mt. Scopus enclave had invaded the Jordan village of Issawiya, on the same height, and had fired on civilians there.

Armed Syrians accompanying a flock of sheep penetrated Israel yesterday near the Dan Settlement in Upper Galilee and opened fire on Israel guards who approached to investigate. United Nations observers who left a nearby UN post to investigate the shooting were fired upon from Syrian gunposts across the border.
