Four army personnel killed in fresh Sinai bombing
[AlAhram] Four security personnel killed Wednesday following a separate attack that also left civilians dead
A roadside kaboom killed four security personnel Wednesday in the Sinai Peninsula, where Egypt's military is combating an Islamist insurgency, security sources told Al-Ahram Arabic news website.
Two army officers and two recruits were killed when the roadside kaboom went off in a village near the town of Rafah in North Sinai, a hotbed of jihadist fighters who have stepped up their attacks since the 2013 ouster of Islamist president Mohammed Morsi.
The attack was reported shortly after three non-combatants were killed in a separate attack south of Rafah.
