An injured Jewish settler is helped onto a stretcher after Israeli policemen and soldiers stormed a synagogue in the Neve Dekalim settlement in Gush Katif, Gaza Strip, August 18, 2005. Israeli troops stormed two Gaza Strip synagogues and dragged out screaming settlers and supporters on Thursday in assaults on the last bastions of resistance to a pullout from the occupied territory. Hundreds of unarmed soldiers and police swept into the main house of worship in the largest Gaza settlement, Neve Dekalim, ending a two-day standoff with more than a thousand ultranationalist youths who had defied orders to leave.
