A 35-year-old Bedouin man has been beheaded in southern Sheikh Zuweid city in Egypt for allegedly collaborating with the Israeli intelligence.
Egyptian officials said Friday that the head of the unidentified man was found near his body on Friday morning, two weeks after he was seized by the Ansar Bait al-Maqdis militant group for interrogation.
Sinai jihadists are beheading people - and no one is really talking about it.
Also from Ma'an:
Egyptian border police shot dead a Palestinian and detained two others after they exited the opening of a smuggling tunnel in the border town of Rafah on Saturday morning, Egyptian military sources said.Egypt kills Gazans - and no one is talking about that either.
Border guard officers reportedly spotted three men walking out of a tunnel opening in area of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier area on the Egyptian side of Rafah, a town that straddles the border.
The sources said that officers shouted at the men to stop, but the men instead attempted to return into the tunnel.
As a result, officers opened fire, killing one. The other two men then stopped and were taken into custody.
The sources told Ma'an that the operation came after the Egyptian army announced a state of alert along the border with the Gaza Strip following intelligence information regarding the potential "infiltration" of "gunmen" from the Gaza Strip into Sinai Peninsula.
