| [AlAhram] Egypt's second field army killed three faceless myrmidons in North Sinai who were armed with weapons, ammunition and explosives, and destroyed four vehicles used by the terrorists, Egypt's army spokesperson Tamer El-Refaai said in a statement on Thursday. The front man said that in a separate incident, one officer and five others were killed when an IED hit an army vehicle during a raid on a terrorist hideout.
They said the bomb struck a military convoy that was patrolling an area just outside the town of Bir al-Abd in northern Sinai, killing a colonel who was the town’s military commander, a second officer and four soldiers. Three more soldiers were maimed in the attack, they said. Bir al-Abd was the scene of the deadliest terrorist attack against civilians in Egypt’s modern history, when gunnies killed 311 worshipers in a mosque on November 24. In a separate attack, a rocket-propelled grenade hit a police armored vehicle in central el-Arish, a coastal city in northern Sinai, killing one conscript. A firefight later erupted between the police and krazed killers, and a civilian driving in the area was caught in the crossfire and killed, said the officials. Three gunnies were killed in the shootout, they added. | |
