Militants attack Egypt gas pipeline for 12th time
Egyptian security officials say militants have again blown up a gas pipeline in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula that transports fuel to Israel. The attack on the pipeline is the 12th since the popular uprising that ousted longtime Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak last year.
Police officials said gunmen attacked the pipeline in the north Sinai city of al-Arish on Monday. There were no details on the extent of damage. Previous explosions have shut down gas flow for days or weeks. (AP)
