attack on Egyptian soldiers

16 soldiers killed near the border with Israel, by attackers who stole vehicles and then entered Israel itself and opened fire. The story is HERE.

The Sinai has been out of control for awhile (more or less since the end of the January 25 Revolution) and the death of 16 Egyptian soldiers underlines the seriousness of the problem.

I’ve greatly enjoyed Sinai trips in the past, but wouldn’t even consider going at the moment.
