'Terrorist' killed by own bomb in Sinai
[Al Ahram] An Egyptian military source told state-owned news agency MENA that a member of a "terrorist group" was killed on Sunday as he was attempting to plant an bomb on El-Sheikh Zuweid road in north Sinai.

The source further denied media reports that the kaboom happened in the vicinity of a vehicle owned by security forces.

Hours earlier, Al-Ahram Arabic reported that a bomb went kaboom! late Sunday in the region close to a military vehicle.

The military source also refuted media reports of an Israeli patrol being attacked by gunnies south of the Rafah border, stressing that what had taken place was an exchange of gunfire between Egyptian security forces and "terrorist Death Eaters" who were trying to cross the border.

Israeli newspapers reported an exchange of fire between the Egyptian army and unidentified faceless myrmidons on the border, and Israeli news website Ynet reported that Israel had raised its alert level after the incident.
