Gunmen attacked the gas line between #Egypt and #Israel in northern Sinai: local reports
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]
Update from the Times of Israel at 12:50 p.m.
The Islamic State group says it blew up a gas pipeline in Egypt’s restive Sinai Peninsula, claiming it was connected to Israel.

Security sources earlier said the pipeline hit was a domestic one that connects to a power station in El-Arish, powering homes and factories in central Sinai. No casualties were reported.

In a statement posted on its Telegram chat groups, IS says “caliphate soldiers targeted… the natural gas line linking the Jews and the apostate Egyptian government.”

Israeli officials have said gas flow is continuing, and they are not aware of any damage to the Israeli-Egyptian pipeline.
