'Sinai Hit Again'

Topics: Terrorism

Two suicide bombers have hit a base of peacekeeping forces in Sinai. Two Egyptian soldiers, one Norweigian, and one New Zealander were wounded. The foreign soldiers are attached to the multinational peacekeeping forces in Sinai.

This attack occurs just two days after the triple bombing carried out by three Bedouin men from Sinai - that killed 24 at Egypt's Sinai resort city of Dahab on the Gulf of Aqaba.

The Big Pharoah says: "Sinai has become a "Tora Bora" for terrorists, and that there has also been another attack in Ariesh and Sharqiyah. In Ariesh (North Sinai) they attacked the security bureau and in Sharqiyah (governorate in North Egypt) they attacked a police car. This is war!" (in an update, BP says that the attack in Sharqiyah is not true according to the police. Apparently the reports are still very conflicting so far).

Update: The third attack is true!
