Defense Minister Moshe Dayan produced what he claimed was new photographic evidence last night that Egypt camouflaged a bombed out military installation so that it would appear to journalists that Israeli jets had struck a school. Gen. Dayan showed newsmen a still wet photo print of the target of an April 8 air raid which Israel says was a military encampment near Sailahiyeh in the Nile Delta. He said huge bulldozers filled and covered trenches and fox holes that surrounded the target and large military trucks and oil tankers were driven off and replaced by agricultural machinery. Gen. Dayan said the Egyptians even constructed a cluster of wooden sheds to give the appearance that the target was an agricultural school. He said the latest photographs showed 13 sheds which were not there when the target was photographed immediately before and after it was attacked.
