Three terrorists blew up the Egyptian-Israeli neutral gas pipeline for at least the sixth time this year in the pre-dawn hours Tuesday in the northern Sinai. The line also supplies gas to Jordan.
The terrorists destroyed a pumping station, leaving behind one man who was hospitalized as the flames from the blast shot up nearly 50 feet in the air.
Egyptian soldiers have preventedseveral other attacks on the pipeline and at pumping station, but Tuesday’s attack provides more evidence that Bedouin and Arab terrorists have carved out areas of de facto control in the Sinai.
