REPORT OF THE SECRETARY-GENERAL IN PURSUANCE
OF SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION 518 (1982)

         1. This report is submitted in pursuance of resolution 518 (1982) which the Security Council adopted in the afternoon of 12 August 1982. In that resolution, the Council demanded that Israel and all parties to the conflict observe strictly the terms of the Security Council resolution relevant to the immediate cessation of all military activities within Lebanon and particularly in and around Beirut, demanded the immediate lifting of all restrictions on the city of Beirut in order to permit the free entry of supplies to meet the urgent needs of the civilian population in Beirut; requested the United Nations observers in and in the vicinity of Beirut to report on the situation; and demanded that Israel co-operate fully in the effort to secure effective deployment of the United Nations observers, as requested by the Government of Lebanon, and in such a manner as to ensure their safety.The Council further requested the Secretary-General to report soonest to the Security Council on the implementation of the resolution and decided to meet if necessary in order to consider the situation upon receipt of the report of the Secretary-GeneraI.

         2. Immediately after the adoption of the resolution, the Secretary-General brought it to the attention of the Foreign Minister of Israel as well as of the Foreign Minister of Lebanon and the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization.

         3. In a letter addressed to the Secretary-General on 13 August 1982, the Permanent Representative of Israel conveyed the position of his Government as follows.
         "In connection with the reporting functions entrusted to Your Excellency under paragraph 5 of Security Council resolution 518 (1982), I have the honor to communicate to you, on instructions from my Government, the following:
         1) The Israel Defense Forces strictly observe the cease-fire throughout Lebanon on the axiomatic condition that it is mutual and absolute.

         2) Israel does not fight the civilian population, in Beirut or elsewhere. As is well known, the civilian population of West Beirut has been taken hostage by the terrorists, in keeping with their long-established cowardly tactics of hiding behind civilians and establishing their positions in schools, hospitals, mosques, churches etc.. The suffering caused to the civilians as a result of these cynical tactics is profoundly regretted by the Government and people of Israel.

         3) Israel's position with regard to the matters dealt with in paragraph 3 and 4 of Security Council resolution 518 (1982) has been fully set out in my letter dated 5 August 1982, as reproduced in document S/15345/Add.1of the same date".

         4.Also on 13 August 1982, the Foreign Ministry of Lebanon, through the Liaison Officer of the Lebanese Army, informed the Officer-in-Charge of the Observer
