The Egyptian Army destroyed five hideouts and two vehicles belonging to extremists in Central Sinai, the Egyptian military spokesman, Tamer al-Refaay, said in a statement on Wednesday in Cairo.
The Central Sinai is at the Southern part of North Sinai province bordering Israel and the Palestinian Gaza strip.
“The law-enforcement army forces continue their efforts to obliterate extremist and criminal elements in central Sinai,’’ said military spokespersons said.
Terrorist attacks have killed hundreds of policemen and soldiers since the military ousted former Islamist President Mohammed Morsi early July 2013 in response to mass protests.
Most of the attacks were claimed by a Sinai-based group affiliated with the regional Islamic State (IS) militant group.
Meanwhile, the Egyptian military and police said they had killed hundreds of militants and arrested similar number of suspects.
They said the killing was part of the country’s anti-terror war declared by President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi, the army chief then, following Morsi’s removal.
