Two Egyptian policemen killed, 9 injured in North Sinai attack: Security source
2017-07-09
[AlAhram] Two Central Security Forces (CSF) conscripts were killed and nine were maimed when their vehicle was hit by a roadside explosive in North Sinai's al-Arish city, al-Ahram Arabic news website reported on Saturday.

A security source told al-Ahram that an improvised bomb (IED) planted on the roadside went off as the APC was moving in al-Arish’s Safaa neighborhood.

The source said the corpse count might increase, adding that unknown assailants had detonated the IED remotely.

No group has yet grabbed credit for the attack that comes only one day after 26 army personnel were killed or injured by boom-mobiles that targeted a security checkpoint near Rafah in North Sinai.
