United Nations. N.Y.—Israel lias asked for an urgent meeting of tin; Security Council to consider what it termed a "deliberate and planned military attack" by Egyptian forces that resulted Aug.'J.C>in the death of two Isrueli soldiers and kidnapping of another. A letter was .submitted requesting the meeting by Shabtai itosenne, deputy permanent representative. Yosef Tekoah, Israel's permanent U.N. representative, is returning from Israel, where he has been holding diplomatic consultations, to present Israel's case. Mr. Hosenne said in the letter to Ambassador George Ignatieff of Canada, this month's Council president, that the alleged attack constituted a "ilagrant violation'' of the Six-Day War ceasefire. "The seriousness" of the attack at the Suez Canal, he said, "is aggravated by the negntive reply of the United Arab Republic authorities to represent;ntinns made by I s r a e l through Lt. Gen. Odd Bull," chief of the U.N. ceasefire observer team, "to return the kidnapped soldier, to take effective steps against those responsible for the attack and to {;ive assurances it would not be repeated."

Bull said that Egyptian authorities denied t h a t Egyptian forces had crossed the canal. The Egyptians also disclaimed any knowledge of the whereabouts of the soldier who, Israel claims, was dragged by some .10 commandos into a boat waiting at the canal. No Arab paramilitary organization has claimed responsibility for the incident.
T-ondon (JTA.i—Arab armies and air forces are on a full scale alert in case a new Arab-Israel war erupts as a result of expected heavy Israeli air raids on Jordan towns and villages, according to reports reaching here. Some diplomatic sources here believe that one possible explanation for the wave of reports from Cairo and Damascus alleging that Israel is preparing an attack is that the Arabs may be trying to commit Russia into a "Middle East Czechoslovakia." Reporter Colin Lcgum of the London Sunday Observer reported from Jerusalem that Arab anxieties are not supported by Western diplomats who have
