Anonym gunmen opened fire Tuesday on a hotel in the Egyptian resort of Taba bordering ‘Israeli’ entity, prompting Zionist tourists to flee, but no casualties have been reported, security sources said.
"At least four people in an unmarked pick-up truck tried to storm Al-Wekalah Hotel in Taba Heights," a security official stated.
"Security guards exchanged fire with the gunmen who managed to flee," the source added.
The gunmen apparently were hoping to rob a jewelry store inside the hotel which is frequented by Zionist tourists.
Several ‘Israeli’ holidaymakers quickly evacuated the premises heading home across the border, the security official said.
Taba in the Sinai peninsula is a choice destination for Zionist tourists.
In September, the Jewish entity restricted its citizens from traveling to Taba for "security reasons," the prime minister's office said.
