Negeb Desert.
Israeli police said they assumed
the fedayeen bands we're trying

said retreat to the GAIA strip
now was virtually impossible be-
cause of the advances of Israeli
troops.

British and French naval units
were reported closing in on both
ends Of the Suez Canal.
Egypt said navigation In the
canal already had been halted
by the ritish-French sinking of
an Egyptian warship in the
channel. British French head
quarters denied this account but
the British later confirmed that
the canal was closed.
Egypt today reported a second
blockade, repeatedly by the sink

the fighting in the area.

Israel and Jordan.
Israeli forces invaded the pen

fighting between Israel and
Egypt.
Egypt refused and the British
French attacks were launched
on Egyptian air installations.
The two nations said they would
occupy the canal points Of Port

insisted their occupation would
be only temporary.
