Egyptian forces kill 15 militants in North Sinai raid
[PRESSTV] Security forces in Egypt have killed 15 murderous Moslems in a raid in the country’s restive region of Sinai Peninsula.A Death Eater group was "planning hostile acts targeting military and police forces... in order to destabilize national security," the Egyptian Interior Ministry said in a statement on Sunday. Security forces exchanged fire with the murderous Moslems as they stormed their hideout in a farm located in North Sinai’s bucolic provincial capital of el-Arish. Authorities said they found a small trove of stashed weapons, including an boom belt, several rifles, and another unspecified bomb. The ministry did not mention when the raid took place. The announcement followed recent "counter-terrorism" operations in Sinai during which authorities said 118 suspected murderous Moslems were killed.
"Police forces seized nine automatic rifles, three bird-eye rifles, two explosive charges and an boom belt in possession of the terrorist group." The statement did not say when the raid took place, yet the announcement came three days after an Islamic State  ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... attack on a checkpoint in the town of Bir El-Abd, which killed eight troops and one civilian.
