Israeli Jets Down 15 as Tanks Push Deep Into Egypt
Israeli tanks drive deep into Egypt with 15 Israeli jets shot down over the Suez area during raids on targets in the Nile Delta. Israel claims a bridgehead of around 12,000 soldiers and 300 tanks remains secret. Egypt reports forces crossing near Bitter Lakes and Cairo lies about 70 miles west. Dayan says the aim is to outflank Egyptians and destroy antiaircraft bases to free jets. Front-line officers note tanks within 50 miles of Cairo, while Tel Aviv releases a broader penetration claim of 15 to 20 miles. Egyptian analysts say Arabs may accept higher casualties to inflict losses on Israel, prioritizing land capture less than attrition. Simultaneous AP reports from Mt Hermon in Syria describe shelling of bunkers with no line changes near the Golan Heights.
