On March 11, Egyptian Army spokesman Colonel Tamer Rifai announced in an official statement that the Egyptian Army had killed 16 ISIS fighters and had captured 3 others during its ongoing military operation in the Sinai Peninsula – “Sinai 2018”. The Egyptian Army also destroyed 6 vehicles and 32 motorcycles belonging to ISIS.
Col. Rifai also announced that warplanes of the Egyptian Air Force (EAF) had foiled an attempt of terrorists to infiltrate the country’s western border and had destroyed 7 vehicles. In the Sinai Peninsula, the EAF destroyed 9 positions and 3 vehicles belonging to ISIS, according to Col. Rifai.
Furthermore, the Egyptian Army discovered and destroyed 258 ISIS hideouts and an ammo depot, in which the Egyptian Army had found mortar shells, RPG-7 rounds, Grad rockets as well as Kornet and Malyutka anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs).
Meanwhile, the ISIS-linked news agency Amaq reported that ISIS fighters had damaged a M60 battle tank and a bulldozer of the Egyptian Army with IEDs near the city of Rafah in the northeastern part of the Sinai Peninsula.
The Egyptian Army has slowed down its military operations in the Sinai Peninsula over the past two weeks, which indicates that it has achieved most of its main goals. However, local observers believe that the Egyptian Army will not halt its operation soon because ISIS cells are still active in the peninsula.
Weapons and military equipment captured by the Egyptian Army in Sinai:
The regime in Washington is a part of all problems in the world. They killing civilians by their own proxies and when the nation of a country resist then Washington label them terrorists, sanction them, accuse them for CW or WMD etc to directly invade these countries and occupy their lands. For example Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya, Egypt, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India and so on.
Indeed Washington is it self a headquarter of all terrorist groups from where regime arms and finance different terrorist groups in the world. For example Israel, ISIS Daesh, Al-Qaeda HTS, FSA, SDF, YPG, Kurds and so on. Russia could use nuclear bombs against these terrorist groups otherwise these terrorist groups will destroy whole lives in these countries.
If Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan and Egypt want to honour and liberate Palestine then first of all they need to kick out all Israeli nationals including Israeli spies, diplomats from their own countries. Israel is a terrorist state of illegal European migrants. Therefore, they should choose one country either Palestine or Israel.
Rob. Most of arab dictators make the choice years ago………..ISRAEL.
But that is 30 years ago when US and NATO regimes were stronger. Now they are so weaker that they cannot support their allies anymore, therefore, many their allies have left US and NATO and have joined Russia and China. For example Turkey that removing US backed Kurdistan from Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, Egypt, Yemen and so on. Now Saudi Arabia has also moved towards Russia and China and have signed military agreements.
“Egyptian Air Force (EAF) had foiled an attempt of terrorists to infiltrate the country’s western border and had destroyed 7 vehicles.” …..so are the vermin also coming in from Libya as well ?.
