Did an Israeli drone strike militants in Egypt?
Eyewitnesses say an Israeli drone struck Egyptian militants in the Sinai Peninsula on July 23, despite Egypt’s official assertions that it was responsible for the strike.
RAFAH, Egypt — Israel has intensified its efforts to eliminate the threats to its security emanating from Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, with which it shares a 200-kilometer (124-mile) border.
A close reading of the security situation in the Israeli-Egyptian border region, from which attacks are launched from time to time toward Israeli territory, makes this situation clear. On July 23, a debate took place in Egyptian media about a precise strike by an Israeli drone against an Egyptian group preparing to fire rockets from Sinai toward Israel.
