None
Islamist militants driving vehicles mounted with machine guns opened fire on a police checkpoint in Egypt's Sinai peninsula, killing two policemen and injuring a third in a daring attack early Sunday, security officials said.
The policemen opened fire at the attackers, but failed to stop them. The gunmen fled the site of the attack south of the airport of the city of el-Arish, leaving two policemen dead, one hit in the chest and another in the head, the officials said. (AP)
