Seven police officers have been killed in an extremist attack in restive North Sinai, Egypt's interior ministry said Wednesday.
The attack near the regional capital El-Arish targeted an "assembly center" for police, according to the ministry.
North Sinai has long been a center of insurgents and Egyptian authorities last year launched an offensive against extremists.
