He declined to say whether the
Rafa-GaZa coastal road was cut.
1t appeared obvious, however. that
with fighting northwest OF Nlrlm
the road would be seriously en-

Tel Aviv Area Bombed.
Last night, Arab planes dropped
bombs east of Tel Aviv as Israel
went into it's second night OF total
blackout. No damage was reported.
Cairo dispatches said the seven
nation Arab League was pressing
the governments Of other Arab ma
lions to take up arms in support
of the Egyptian Army.
The Leagues secretary general,
Abdel Rahman Azzam Pasha, told
newsmen Syria and Saudi Arabia
replied they are ready to fight.
Mr.. AzZam Pasha recalled that
League members agreed last month
to send all Arab armies against
the Jews in the Holy Land, If the
Israelis violated the truce. The
Egyptians have claimed violations
occurred.
The Jews have been minimizing
the reports of United Nations OBJ
servers and Egyptians, who said
fighting is widespread and may
mark the start of a second Israeli
Negeb offensive. The first occurred
in october.
A military spokesman conceded
that the fighting has spread far
Their south than the previous bat
tleground near Nirin, east OF the
Egyptian frontier post Of Rata.
Nirim Is about miles from the
Egyptian border.
Both Sides Called Aggressive.
The spokesman said there also is
fighting in the area east and south

The spokesman declined to call
it Jewish offensive, he said both
sides were aggressive.
The Israeli air force was report
ed to have raided front-line areas.
United Nations observers at Haifa
said bombs as big as 500 Founders
appear to have been used in the
GAIA and Rata areas early yester-
day.
It was virtually impossible to
get a factual picture Of the spread
ing battles which would balance
with the reports of Egyptians Of
United Nations observers.
