Arab Brother and Sister Were Killed by Palestinian Bomb

[Gimel]

The IDF's Operation Rainbow continues along Israel's border with Egypt in southern Gaza. Though Israel is making efforts to juggle humanitarian treatment of its enemy with the ferreting out of terrorist elements, the world media are concentrating on the deaths of an Arab brother and sister - which actually resulted from an Arab-placed bomb.

Israel has destroyed only four buildings since it sent massive forces into Rafiach on Monday morning. Last night the forces tore down the home of the terrorist who shot and killed, from point-blank range, Tali Hatuel and her four daughters 17 days ago. Some 20 Arabs - almost all of them wanted terrorists - have been killed in the operation thus far; the IDF forces are avoiding alleyways and house-to-house fighting, and have suffered no casualties.
