"In implementation of the decisions of the National Defense Council and in line with Egypt's right to defend the security and the stability of its great people and avenge the criminal acts carried out by terrorists both inside and outside the country, the Army launched at dawn of Monday an air raid against the camps, training positions and arms and ammunition warehouses of Daesh militant group in Libya," the Armed Forces said in a statement.
