Roadside bomb kills 2 police in Egypt's Sinai
None
CAIRO - An explosive device struck a police vehicle in the northern Sinai town of el-Arish, killing two conscripts and wounding nine others late Saturday, according to the Egypt's Interior Ministry.
The northern part of the Sinai Peninsula, bordering Gaza and Israel, is home to a powerful Islamic State affiliate that has carried out a number of attacks in recent years, mainly targeting security forces and the region's Christian minority.
The extremist group claimed an attack Friday on a remote army outpost in the northern Sinai that killed 23 soldiers.
