A Palestinian boy waits to be treated after Israel

A Palestinian boy waits to be treated after Israeli missiles struck Gaza city on May 16, 2004. Israel`s top general threatened to destroy hundreds of Palestinian refugee homes after the Supreme Court cleared the way for demolitions in a flashpoint Israeli-held corridor on the Gaza-Egypt border. Secretary of State Colin Powell said the United States opposed the destruction of homes in Rafah refugee camp, adjacent to the `Philadelphi` buffer zone in the southern Gaza Strip , and urged an end to a cycle of violence.
