Egyptian security: 3 Koreans kidnapped in Sinai
Egypt's security chief for the Sinai peninsula says armed tribesmen have kidnapped three Korean tourists and their Egyptian guide. Maj. Gen. Mohammed Nagib says the tribesmen stopped a tourist bus and took the four, leaving a number of other tourists behind.
The kidnapping Friday was the latest in a string this month. Tribesmen often abduct tourists to use in negotiations with the government over the release of imprisoned colleagues. The tourists are rarely harmed. (AP)
