Report: Egypt arrests commander of Sinai jihadist group

By JPOST.COM STAFF
Egyptian security forces apprehended the commander of a jihadist terror organization that has killed scores of soldiers and police in the Sinai Peninsula, Sky News' Arabic-language service reported on Friday.
Walid Waqed Atallah, the most wanted man in Egypt, is the head of Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis, a radical Islamist group that has also claimed credit for launching rockets at Eilat as well as executing suspected spies for Israel.
Atallah became the focus of a massive manhunt by Egyptian security forces after the murder of three policemen who were killed by a roadside bomb.
