Clouds of smoke billow in the sky above eastern Rafah following Israeli strikes. As its war with Hamas enters an eighth month, Israel has sent tanks into the southern Gazan city and has taken control of the Rafah border crossing with Egypt. The military's thrust into eastern Rafah comes a day after Israel warned Palestinians in the area to evacuate ahead of a long-threatened ground operation. IMAGES
