Alwaght- Militants have killed three soldiers and a policeman in two separate attacks in Egypt's restive Sinai Peninsula, Reuters reported.
Security and medical sources said on Thursday that three soldiers had been killed in a bombing of an armored vehicle by militants in Sinai.
The sources added that the soldiers were conducting a patrol in the North Sinai town of Rafah, which borders the Gaza Strip.
In a separate attack, a policeman was killed by gunmen while he was shopping in Arish, the provincial capital and the largest city of North Sinai.
The gunmen managed to flee and the body was taken to a military hospital.
The attacks are the latest in an area, where security forces have been battling Daesh Takfiri terrorists, which authorities say have killed hundreds of members of security forces.
The militants have also extended their campaign to other parts of Egypt, most recently attacking churches in Cairo and other cities with the loss of dozens of lives.
No immediate official comment was available from Egypt’s military or the Interior Ministry. No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack.
