Four Palestinians were part of deadly Islamist attack in Sinai

Four former members of the Palestinian Hamas military army took part in the large-scale ISIS attack Friday on Egyptian checkpoints in northern Sinai, which left 23 Egyptian soldiers dead and 33 injured. This is reported by Maj. Gen. Poli Mordecai, Coordinator of IDF operations in Judea and Samaria. He added that Islamist terrorists come and go freely between Sinai and the Gaza Strip, notwithstanding the recent Hamas guarantee to Cairo. “It turns out that on this border, Hamas and ISIS are two sides of the same terrorist coin,” he noted.
