EL-ARISH, Egypt (AP) — An Israeli man and a Norwegian woman went missing in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula on Friday and are suspected to have been kidnapped, officials said.
An Egyptian intelligence official in Sinai said a Bedouin taxi driver told police he was driving the two to the popular Red Sea diving site of Dahab when gunmen ambushed his vehicle and captured the two tourists. The Israeli is believed to be of Arab origin, he added.
