Two suicide car bombs were used in attacks in the Sinai that left at least six dead. Ansar Jerusalem, a jihadist group in the Sinai, said in a new statement that ‘it is obligatory’ to fight the Egyptian army. An army prosecutor said that a journalist known for reporting in the Sinai was aiding Islamist militants. Authorities reportedly arrested 23 Egyptians trying to flee to Libya.
