JERUSALEM: Attackers on Egypt’s Sinai peninsula opened fire on Israeli soldiers across the border yesterday, wounding two, the Israeli military said.
The attackers fired guns and an anti-tank missile at the Israelis, the military said.
“Two soldiers were injured by fire directed at them from Egypt,” it added, without identifying the attackers.
Egyptian security sources said Egyptian forces later clashed with several gunmen who had likely attacked the Israeli border patrol. No casualties were reported in the confrontation, and there was no immediate comment from the Egyptian military.
