| 2014-08-20 |
| Four decapitated bodies were found north of the Sinai Peninsula Wednesday morning, about 15 kilometers from the border with Gaza. Residents of Sheikh Zaveid found the bodies; security forces in Cairo estimated that the deceased were kidnapped from the Egyptian capital on Monday morning. According to one police prediction, the four - who were last seen in a car - were kidnapped by a local terrorist organization on suspiscions of giving over information to Egyptian police and military forces. A security source told the Al-Masry Al-Youm daily that the organization responsible for the murder, which he called Orfei Harsha'am (lit. "rear their heads"), are trying to imitate the methods of the execution of the "Islamic State" (IS; formerly known as ISIS), the terror group tearing through large swaths of Iraq and Syria. |
