A state of emergency was declared in parts of North Sinai after at least 31 members of the Egyptian security forces were killed in two separate attacks in the governorate on Friday.

Twenty-eight soldiers were killed – according to the latest figures reported by local satellite channel CBC – and another 30 injured when a car bomb exploded at the Karm Alkwadis security checkpoint in Sheikh Zuweid.

Just hours later three security personal died when militants opened fire at a checkpoint in nearby Al-Arish.

President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi declared a state of emergency in the governorate after meeting with the National Defence Council for several hours. The state of emergency will last for three months and will include a daily curfew from 5pm to 7am until further notice.
