“Egypt, with its grandeur, and long standing civilization will be eventually able to ward off such ‘unprecedented’ terrorism, and Egypt will remain a strong fortress in the face of it,” the statement said.

A number of terrorists stormed Al-Rawdah mosque in west Arish City during Friday prayers, and detonated an explosive device.
