The General Assembly received a draft resolution asking the Assembly to call again for the early convening of the Geneva Peace Conference on the Middle East under the auspices of the UN and "with the participation on an equal footing of all parties concerned, including the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO)".

The United Nations Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) observes the maintenance in Palestine of the cease fire, and assists the parties to the armistice agreements in the supervision of the application and observance of the terms of those agreements. A corps of UN Military Observers (UNMO) is available to assist in investigating any complaints.

By agreement between Israel and Jordan, an UN-escorted convoy carrying food, other necessities, and exchange personnel to the Israeli humanitarian and cultural institutions on Mount Scopus, leaves Mandelbaum Square every two week. Manifests are tiled with the United Nations and with Jordanian authorities. Before departure the contents of the convoy are examined by personnel of the UN Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) in the presence of both Jordanian and Israeli authorities.

Headline Displaced Persons in Lebanon

Caption Description An old woman resting in the deserted town of Khiam in Southern Lebanon.

An estimated 300,000 people have been displaced by the Israeli invasion of Southern Lebanon, some 200,000 to 230,000 Lebanese and 85,000 to 100,000 Palestinians; about 30,000 are children. These people had fled from the conflict area in the south to north of the Litani River, and are located mainly in the cities of Beirut and Saida. In response to an appeal made by the Lebanese Government, assistance is being provided by the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), and the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF).
