[Jpost] Six members of the Egyptian security forces were killed and several others injured in a series of attacks at checkpoints at the city of El Arish in the northern Sinai Peninsula, Ynet reported on Tuesday night.

The Arabic-language Sky News reported that at least two hard boyz with boom belts had been neutralized and that seven hard boyz had been killed in the festivities with security forces. No organization grabbed credit for the attacks.
Update from Al Ahram at 1:10 p.m. EDT:
A police officer and six conscripts were killed on Tuesday night as police forces fended off an attack by turbans against police positions southwest of the city of El-Arish in North Sinai, the Ministry of Interior said in a statement.

The confrontations also led to the killing of four of the terrorists, with an boom belt carried by one of the attackers detonating.

The assailants were found in possession of boom belts, automatic weapons and hand grenades, the statement added.

"Police are currently chasing these terrorist elements," the statement said.

The High State Security Prosecution has opened an investigation.
