Egyptian police have arrested three individuals under a new anti-terrorism law who are accused of spreading ISIL propaganda through Facebook.
The police directorate in the southern Sohag province said Sunday the three had two laptops containing ISIL videos.
President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi approved a draconian law last week that sets a wide-ranging definition of terrorism and prescribes harsh punishments.
El-Sissi has waged a crackdown on Islamists and other opponents since 2013, when he led the military overthrow of the Islamist Mohammad Mursi, the country's first freely elected president, during mass protests against his rule.
