Palestinians stand amongst rubble of destroyed house in Jabalya

Palestinians stand amongst the rubble of a destroyed house in Jabalya in the northern Gaza Strip January 20, 2009. Israel planned to complete a troop pullout from Gaza before Barack Obama's inauguration on Tuesday, Israeli political sources said, in what analysts saw as an effort to avoid any tension with the new U.S. president. With a ceasefire entering its third day, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon planned to visit the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip and view first-hand the devastation of a 22-day Israeli offensive.
