The area indicated by "1" on the map excerpt (ENCLOSURE 2) and pedominated by such predominant locales as "B'aqlin, Bayt ad Din and Ma'assir Bayt ad Din" is highly vulnerable to Isareli intercept and direction finding. The captors will travel by truck along Area 12 area characterized by a broken yellow line and representing a route of travel skirting an apparent series of high hills/mountains. The ultimate destination is "Bsaba" indicated as Area "3". This route of travel is an alternate route and represents a departure from the previous access route located along the coast. Bsaba is the jumping off point to smuggle in Higgins to the International Airport. The use of the truck will be discarded in favor of the blue sedan previously described. Should the captors succeed in smuggling Higgins into the International Airport area, he (Higgins) would then be very difficult to find.
