The Egyptian air forces destroyed 10 vehicles loaded with arms attempting to infiltrate into Egypt through its western borders with eastern Libya, the Egyptian military spokesman said in a statement on Saturday.

“The forces detected and pursued 10 four-by-four vehicles loaded with amounts of weapons, ammunition and smuggled material at the western borderline,” said military spokesman Tamer al-Refaay, adding “the air forces dealt with them, destroyed them all and killed the terrorist elements therein.”
