Egypt increases troops in Rafah region
|
 [AlAhram] The joint military committee between Egypt and Israel has agreed to increase the number of Egyptian border guards at the Rafah border area with Israel, the Egyptian Armed Forces announced on Monday.
Egypt had already increased its army presence in the area in recent years following increased terrorist attacks in North Sinai that killed hundreds of military and police personnel as well as civilians. Hundreds of bad boyz were potted in the security operations in North Sinai.
Top Israeli military officers spoke with their Egyptian counterparts in a rare public meeting in the Sinai Peninsula on Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces said.
The meeting was held under the auspices of the so-called Agreed Activities Mechanism, a provision of the 1979 Israel-Egypt peace treaty, which required Jerusalem to sign off on any reinforcements that Cairo wanted to deploy to the Sinai through a joint committee made up of senior IDF and Egyptian officers.
"During a meeting of the committee, an agreement was signed to formalize the deployment of guard troops in the area of Rafah to reinforce the Egyptian military’s security control over the area," the IDF said, adding that the decision was approved by Israel’s civilian leadership.

The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

Over the past decade, Israel has repeatedly acceded to Egyptian requests to send additional troops to the area as it has confronted an Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more.

terror group insurgency in the Sinai. In the past, however, the meetings have not been publicly disclosed, at Cairo’s request.
Israel has also reportedly taken an active part in Egypt’s war against Islamic State in the Sinai Peninsula.
The IDF delegation sent to the Sinai on Sunday included the head of IDF Operations, Maj. Gen. Oded Basyuk; the head of the IDF’s Foreign Relations Division, Brig. Gen. Efi Dafrin; and Maj. Gen. Tal Kelman, who commands the IDF’s otherwise Iran-focused Strategy and Third-Circle Directorate.
The highly irregular public announcement of the meeting came as Egypt has engaged in increasingly open relations with Israel, with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi hosting Prime Minister Naftali Bennett in Sinai earlier this year.
