cache
イスラエルがガザ地区の病院を意図的に攻撃しました。その結果5人が亡くなり，70名以上が重軽傷を負いました。被害者のほどんどは医師であるそうです。記事の名で気になった単語は"cache"です。『Wisdom英和辞典第三版（三省堂）』によると「隠し[貯蔵]場所; 隠した物」という意味がありました。発音は"cash"と同じです。コンピュータ用語でデータを一時的に保管する部分をキャッシュというのもこの単語から来ております。ODでは"A collection of items of the same type stored in a hidden or inaccessible place"と定義されております。イスラエル側は，病院に対戦車ミサイルを隠しているということを名目に攻撃を仕掛けたということです。ただでさえ医師や医療器具が不足している中，病院を襲うとは・・・。（Ume）
Gaza conflict: Five dead at hospital hit by Israeli strike
The Israeli military said it had targeted a cache of anti-tank missiles in the hospital's "immediate vicinity".
Overnight, more than 30 members of two Palestinian families died in Israeli strikes, Gazan health officials said.
On Monday evening Israel said seven of its soldiers had been killed in the past 24 hours, bringing the number of Israeli military dead to 25.
Two Israeli civilians have also died in the recent violence.
The Palestinian death toll from the two-week conflict has now passed 550, the majority of them civilians, according to Gaza's health ministry. The UN says more than 100,000 Gazans have now been displaced.
Israel says it has killed more than 170 militants since Thursday night, when it launched the ground offensive phase of its two-week old operation to end rocket fire from Gaza.
Ten militants were killed on Monday after using tunnels to get into Israel near the town of Sderot.
