To show its growing impatience with Israel's military moves, the United States voted in favor of the following resolution which authorized the Secretary General to monitor the cease fire in the Lebanese capital. This occurred after the I.D.F had completed the occupation of Beirut International Airport. Israel rejected the resolution and the next day Israeli soldiers barred the way of 28 U.N. observers from entering Beirut. Text:
