Israel's tanks swept into two West Bank towns Saturday in defiance of U.S. pressure to end its offensive, shortly after Secretary of State Colin Powell called off his first round of scheduled talks with Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.

The decision prompted fresh Palestinian allegations Israel had killed hundreds of civilians and was trying to hide the bodies - something Israeli officials adamantly deny.(AP Photo/Lefteris Pitarakis)
