A car bomb in north Sinai killed 11 Egyptian soldiers and injured 34 others on Wednesday, as unrest continue in the region.
Instability in the Sinai peninsula has grown with the fall of former President Hosni Mubarak, with the Egyptian army launching a recent offensive in the region. More than 20,000 troops were deployed in September as the army attempted to regain control of the area.
Some 100 members of the Egyptian security forces have been killed in a spate of bombings in recent months, with the latest being labelled an act of "black terrorism".
