Default Terrorists attack Egypt base killing 15, infiltrate Israel
It will be interesting to see the Egyptian military response will be to this given the new government.

Global jihad terrorists infiltrated into Israel on Sunday night after breaking into an Egyptian military base and stealing two armored jeeps.

One of the vehicles exploded as it rammed through the Kerem Shalom Crossing into Israel and another crossed through, after which it was targeted by an Israel Air Force strike. Simultaneously, dozens of mortar shells rained down on nearby communities.

Al Arabiya reported that 15 Egyptian soldiers were killed in the attack on their base and several more were wounded.... source: http://www.jpost.com/Defense/Article.aspx?id=280162

I have to say: good show, IDF!
it seems that many Israeli civilians owe their lives to our security forces.
credit is also due to the extremely effective intelligence efforts of shaback and military intelligence.

regarding Egyptian response:
It seems that the Egyptians are convinced that the terrorists came from Gaza strip. they say that the terrorists fled into the strip using the tunnels that they built that connect the strip with the Sinai peninsula. The Egyptian press say that the army confronted the terrorists in the tunnels entrances and that they army has completely surrounded the city of Rafiah and are conducting searches in the city.

meanwhile, Hamas also issued a statement stating un-involvement in the terror attack and condolences for the families of the Egyptian casualties.
