| Egypt: TNT cache found in Sinai en route to Gaza |
| 2010-01-15 |
| [Ma'an] Egyptian security forces said they seized a cache of explosives in the northern Sinai after receiving information on stores of the goods waiting to be transported into the Gaza via the tunnels. The security source said the explosives were found in a one-meter-deep hole in the desert, with approximately 50 kilograms of dynemite adn some other materials likey used in previous wars fought in the Sinai. The announcement comes as Egypt continues to build a steel wall beneath the Gaza-Egypt border in what it says is an effort to stop arms smuggling between the areas. The tunnels have been a lifeline for Gazans, faced with a crippling siege imposed by Israel, which controls the major crossings into the area. |
