LEBANON-ISRAEL: ISRAEL HAS THREATENED TO TAKE
REPRISALS AGAINST THREE SOUTHERN LEBANESE VILLAGES
WHERE COMMANDO OFFICES HAVE RECENTLY REOPENED
YASIR ARAFAT HAD ASSURED THE GOVERNMENT
COMMANDO OFFICES OUTSIDE BEIRUT WOULD REMAIN CLOSED.
THE LEBANESE ARMY HAS PUT 3,000 MEN ON THE BORDER
AND IS CONFIDENT THAT IT CAN CONTAIN MOST FEDAYEEN
CROSS-BORDER OPERATIONS INVOLVING HEAVY WEAPONS.
NEVERTHELESS, LEBANESE AUTHORITIES FEAR THAT ISRAEL
MAY NOT BE SATISFIED WITH THESE MEASURES AND MIGHT
UNDERTAKE AIR STRIKES. IT IS UNLIKELY, HOWEVER,
THAT ISRAEL WOULD TAKE SUCH MEASURES UNLESS FEDA-
YEEN ACTION RESULTED IN ISRAELI CASUALTIES. ISRAELI
ACTION AGAINST LEBANON COULD REDUCE SUPPORT FOR THE
NEW GOVERNMENT, WHICH HAS TAKEN A FIRM STAND TOWARD
THE COMMANDOS.
