When I was active some of the Egyptian patrol boats were fiberglass. That does not stand up well to missile fire.

It was probably a Hellfire or TOW supplied by Hillary Clinton to unseat Kaddafi. Apparently, between Iraq and Libya we have lost hundreds to the terrorists. People are going to be dying for a decade because of our administration’s incompetence.

The Israelis have had several patrol boats hit and at least one seriously damaged off the Lebanese coast. But these were probably caused by Silkworms fired from the beach. Those are too big to be smuggled easily into Egypt. The Israelis run with their anti-missile electronics on all the time. (A Greek freighter was sunk by a Silkworm off the Lebanese coast. It was mistaken for an Israeli ship.)
