Man killed, woman and child injured in shooting in Egypt's North Sinai

Man killed, woman and child injured in shooting in Egypt's North Sinai
Gunmen kill man in town of Rafah, also hit woman and child; motives unclear

A man was killed and a woman and young girl were injured by gunmen on
Tuesday in the North Sinai border town of Rafah, Al-Ahram's Arabic news
website reported.

Eye witnesses at the scene told Al-Ahram that the man, 50-years-old, was
shot by unidentified assailants. The woman and the young girl were also hit
during the shooting and transferred soon after to Al-Arish Hospital.

It is not clear whether the shooting was a militant attack or a feud between
civilians.

The Sinai Peninsula, especially the northern border areas near the Gaza
Strip, has been the scene of continued Islamic insurgency since the July
2013 ouster of president Mohamed Morsi.

Army and police personnel have mostly been targeted, but civilians have also
died in the attacks.
