Egypt army says 10 militants killed in Sinai clashes
ISTANBUL (AA) – Egyptian army said Sunday it had killed 10 militants in clashes in the Sinai Peninsula.
A military spokesman said army forces raided a “terrorist” hideout in the northern part of the peninsula and clashed with militants inside.
A cache of weapons, ammunition, and explosives were seized during the raid.
At least 16 soldiers were killed in two deadly attacks by Daesh/ISIS-affiliated militants in Sinai this month.
The Egyptian army has for years fought an insurgency in the Sinai Peninsula, led mainly by a local branch of the Daesh/ISIS terror group.
