SECRETARY-GENERAL'S REPORT TO SECURITY COUNCIL ON
SITUATION IN THE MIDDLE EAST

         Following the text of the statement made to the Security Council tonight by Secretary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar:

         The present report is submitted in pursuance of Security Council resolution 508 (1982).Which was adopted unanimously at the 2774th meeting of the Council on 5 June 1982 at 1730 hours, New York time. In that resolution, the Security Council called upon "all the parties to the conflict to cease immediately and simultaneously all military activities within Lebanon and across the Lebanese-Israeli border and no later than 0600 hours local time on Sunday 6 June l982", i.e. 0400 hours GMT on 6 June, or midnight New York time on 5/6 June. The Security Council requested me to undertake all possible efforts to ensure the implementation of and compliance with the resolution and to report to the Security Council as early as possible and no later than 48 hours after the adoption of the resolution.

         As the Council is aware, prior to the adoption of the resolution, I had already made an urgent appeal to the parties for such a cessation of hostilities. Thereafter, following the adoption of the resolution, the representative of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) reaffirmed its commitment to stop all military operations across the Lebanese border while reserving its right to respond in case of any Israeli aggression. The Permanent Representative of Israel informed me yesterday at 2300 hours New York time that, while Israeli reactions were in exercise of its right of self-defense, the resolution of the Security Council would be brought before the Israeli Cabinet.

         In a message to Lieutenant-General Callaghan, the Commander of UNIFIL, I instructed him to use every possibility of following up on my appeal to the parties and the subsequent resolution of the Security Council.

         I regret to state, however, that despite all efforts throughout the night, it was not possible to effect a cease-fire. Indeed, the hostilities have escalated dangerously. In this connection, it is relevant to record that Mr.Arafat, the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization, in response to a message from me, informed me that in spite of heavy Israeli air-strikes after the scheduled time of the cease-fire, he had given orders to all PLO units to withhold fire for a further unspecified period. This was of course before the Israeli ground operations started.

         The following is the information received from the Commander of UNIFIL:

         (a) Between 2100 hours GMT on 5 June 1982 and 0400 hours GMT on 6 June 1982, there were intermittent and relatively light exchanges of fire between positions of the armed elements (mainly the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Lebanese National Movement), on the one hand, and the Israel Defense Forces
