\n

\t<\/span>The first group of observers to serve in Palestine under the ±¬ÁÏÍø Mediator, Count Bernadotte, arrived in Rhodes at 6 P.M. GMT yesterday (20 July).  It included 41 Americans and about 25 Belgians.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>The US personnel, who arrived in four C47's, which have been assigned to the United Nations, comprise 19 observers, 17 air crew men and 5 clerks.  The Belgians are observers.  The group may move to Palestine today.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>All preparations have been made for comprehensive briefing of observers, who will also be given full instructions.  This will be a great improvement over the practice during the previous truce, when observers had to be sent into the field unbriefed.  This time all will be channelled through Rhodes for indoctrination.<\/p><\/div>\n
