A bomb attack on a tourist bus in the Sinai peninsula has killed at least three South Korean tourists and an Egyptian driver, officials have said.

A number of South Koreans were also hurt in the attack, which came as the bus was preparing to cross into Israel.

Ping. In some ways, these events may be linked to the instability in Syria.

I had hoped this was a ping to a history article from the 70’s. Sadly no. “Nothing new is under the sun.”
