DUAL DISTRIBUTION

LETTER DATED 7 NOVEMBER 1948 FROM THE REPRESENTATIVE OF EGYPT

TO THE SECRETARY-GENERAL CONCERNING ALLEGED TRUCE VIOLATIONS

BY JEWISH FORCES ON 5 NOVEMBER

With reference to my letter of 23 October 1948 (distributed as document ), I have the honour to inform you further that I have received from my Government a communication to the effect that the Zionists raided Faluja on Friday, 5 November, in the afternoon, long after the last resolution of the Security Council had been issued, killing some of the Egyptian troops and a large number of citizens.

I should be grateful, therefore, if you would urgently bring the above matter to the attention of the Security Council and of the Âé¶¹APP Mediator for Palestine, for action, and inform me in the meantime of the measures taken by the Âé¶¹APP in this respect.

(Signed)  M. Fawzi

Representative of Egypt

to the Security Council
