Day 18 of the Israeli war
The Israeli war enters its 18th day with 1000 casualties and there are at least 2000 injured and many more homeless. The Egyptians in Egypt believe that a truce will happen in 5 to 6 days so that barrack obama will enter office in a truce rather than in the middle of a war. The war has also been having a massive effect on both teams.But news reports on Thursday spoke of tank fire and fierce fighting in several parts of Gaza while the military said at least 10 rockets and mortars fired from Gaza hit southern Israel. Also on Wednesday, nine Israeli human rights groups called for an investigation into whether Israeli officials had committed war crimes in Gaza. The groups say that tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza have nowhere to flee, the Gaza health system has collapsed, many people are without electricity and running water, and some are beyond the reach of rescue teams. The Israeli human rights groups that called for an investigation said that while they believed that it was legitimate for Israel to bomb military installations, it was a violation of international law to hit civilian sites and government buildings that contained no weapons.
