From Times Wire Reports
Two suicide bombers tried to attack international peacekeepers and police in the Sinai peninsula, blowing themselves up two days after bombings killed at least 21 people at the Sinai beach resort of Dahab.
No one but the two bombers died in Wednesday’s attacks near the main peacekeeper base about three miles south of the Rafah border crossing to the Gaza Strip.
Egyptian Interior Minister Habib Adli said all the blasts this week were linked to terrorist attacks at other Sinai resorts last year and in 2004. He blamed Bedouin militants.
