Israel Says Egypt Shot Down Transport Plane Over Sinai
The Associated Press reports Israel accuses Egypt of shooting down a slow transport plane over the Sinai desert near the cease-fire line. Dayan calls the act deeply provocative and premeditated while Egypt claims only that an Israeli Phantom crossed into Egyptian airspace. Israel notes seven crew members missing and a single survivor. The incident marks the first loss since the 1970 cease-fire and follows ongoing regional tension as Meir and Sadat react to U.S. arms and peace efforts.
