| Egypt Adds New Measures Against Terror Recruitment |
| 2014-12-07 |
| [Ynet] Egyptian airport officials say authorities have enacted new rules that ban their countrymen from travelling to Turkey without a permit, a move intended to stem bully boy recruitment. They say Egyptians aged 18-40 now need to apply for security clearance in central Cairo ahead of departure to Turkey. Over 200 people have been barred over the past 24 hours. Interior Ministry front man Hany Abdel-Latif says the new measure was an effort to prevent Egyptians from traveling through Turkey to join bully boy groups in Syria. Security officials estimate that hundreds of Egyptians are fighting alongside bully boyz in Syria and Iraq. |
