In Rubble of Gaza Seaside Cafe, Hunt for Victims Who Had Come for Soccer
-- people watching world cup, but the cafe was obliterated by a bomb. Now they are trying to identify victims...
"KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip About a dozen local Palestinians gathered Wednesday evening at the Fun Time Beach cafe, a beachside eatery of plastic chairs, umbrellas, walls of cloth and palm leaves, a container for a kitchen and a small bathroom, to watch the World Cup match between Argentina and the Netherlands.
What they were not watching for was an Israeli missile, apparently targeting what Israels military later described as a single terrorist. The blast destroyed the cafe and killed at least eight people.
On Thursday, bulldozers, excavators and rescue officers were digging through the remnants of the cafe on the golden sand of this city in the southern Gaza Strip. They were looking for the body of Salim Sawalli, a possible ninth victim. Two of Mr. Sawallis brothers were among the dead.
