Egyptian security expert warns

Egyptian security expert Magdy Al Basyoni blamed fixed checkpoints, saying that they always fail to face the terrorist threats during the current critical period witnessed in the country. He added that the terrorists use such checkpoints to carry out their terrorist attacks against the security and military forces.
He mourned the death of the Egyptian military personnel who were killed on Friday in a terrorist attack in Rafah. He stressed that the the terrorist incident yesterday gives a message that terrorism has failed to control any part of Egypt thanks to the armed forces، the expert added to Sabah On program broadcasted on OnLive satellite channel.
He revealed that the car bombs used in Rafah terrorist incident are belonging to "Toyota" company and have been sold to Qatar، and this confirms Qatar’s involvement in supporting the terrorist groups.
He added, “"Our problem is that we not so much fighting terrorism in Egypt but are mainly taking measures to prevent terrorist acts.”. He stressed that the fight against terrorism should include a whole range of political, economic, cultural, social, media and religious approaches.
He clarified, “It is necessary to have an entire group of ministers and institutions task themselves with this,” warning that terrorist attacks will continue without such an approach despite tightened security.
Commenting the attacks, the expert said these are likely linked to the Egyptian security operation on the Sinai peninsula. He stressed that Incidents were a response to the actions on the Sinai peninsula or to the recent court sentences for terrorists, adding that terrorist groups have concrete aims and fulfill them when they have the chance
Egypt has been fighting a jihadist insurgency in northern Sinai since the army, led by President Abdel Fattah Sisi, overthrew then Islamist president Mohamed Morsi in 2013. Police and security forces have been the target of deadly attacks by Islamists in the area.
In 2014, Sinai's indigenous militants pledged allegiance to Daesh group, which is outlawed in many countries, including Russia and the United States. The self-proclaimed Wilayat Sinai has subsequently claimed responsibility for a number of deadly attacks in the area.
