There have been 3 terror attacks in Egypt tonight in Sinai. Hundreds are injured and at least 35 are reported to be dead. The first and biggest attacked was in Hilton Taba Hotel-A car bomb drove straight into the hotel and exploded near several big gas balloons. The entire front of the hotel collapsed and perhaps several floors as well. There are unknown numbers of people who are trapped between the ruins.
Two more explosions (with few details as for this moments) happened at Ras al-Shitan and in Nuweiba-both south of Taba.
It is most likely by recent reports that Al-Queda is responsible for this attacks, or another Islamic terror group. The Palestinians terror organizations are not likely to carry out the attacks.
Most of the dead and injured are Israelis who spent there last day of the 'Sukot' holiday. Some reports said that Russian tourists were hurt too and British were injured.
This happened around 10.00 PM local time. Right now it's almost 02.00 AM and there is still very few information.
Lets not make this a political thread please, but just hope that the toll won't get higher and pay our thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families.
