In the Egyptian city of Bir al-Abed (north of the Sinai Peninsula) in the mosque of Al-Ravda, at least 235 people died in an explosion, according to the state television of Egypt. About 130 people were injured.

It is noted that the explosion occurred during daytime prayer. According to witnesses, the bomb was detonated by militants in camouflage uniforms who arrived in four SUVs. According to the Ministry of Health, the militants also opened fire on ambulances that were taking away the wounded.

All hospitals and hospitals of the province of North Sinai declared a state of emergency. Divisions of the army and police are looking for the perpetrators.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Sisi convened a meeting of law enforcement agencies in connection with the incident. In the country, declared a three-day mourning. To date, no group has claimed responsibility for the attack.

As Frans-press writes, civilians, as well as draftees who came to the Friday prayer, became victims of the attack. The international airport in the capital Cairo has enhanced security.

On terrorist attack in Twitter US President Donald Trump reacted. “A terrible and cowardly act of terrorism against the innocent and defenseless people of Egypt. The world cannot tolerate terrorism, we must defeat them and discredit their extremist ideology, which forms the basis of their existence!” he wrote.

Note that in recent years, attacks by jihadists have become more frequent in Egypt. The number of terrorist attacks has increased since the military overthrew President Mohamed Morsi in July 2013. Over the past 4 years, hundreds of police officers, military personnel and civilians have become victims of explosions. Most of the actions were organized by Vilayat Sinai, a group close to the Islamic State (the organization is recognized as terrorist in many countries of the world, including Russia).

In September of this year, the militants of this group ambushed a police convoy near El Arish and killed 18 people.
