Description

In the Sinai: An Israeli tank is seen through the shattered wind shield of another vehicle during a lull in the Egypt-Israel Sinai battle. As the renewed fighting moved into its 12th day 10/17, what might be the decisive battle was shaping up at the Suez as Israeli forces raided into Egypt and Egyptian commandos slipped deep behind Israeli lines near the key Red Sea fortress of Sharm El Sheikh.
