Armed forces killed Saturday five militants and detained 13 suspects during a security crackdown in the southern cities of Sheikh Zuweid and Rafah, a security source told Al Bawaba newspaper. The sources who asked to remain anonymous said that the army forces destroyed five hideouts and two vehicles belonging to terrorists, as well as successfully detonating three improvised explosive devices without causing any casualties or injuries. President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi has been trying to revive the country's economy, after the June 30 Revolution, which led to the ouster of president Mohamed Morsi, the leading member of Muslim Brotherhood (MB) terrorist group. The country has been living in a state of political turmoil and security vacuum as a result of MBs' targeting of state institutions, army personnel and policemen, especially in northern Sinai.
