August 6, 2008 (El-ARISH) — The Egyptian police shot and killed a Sudanese from the troubled Darfur region while he was attempting to cross the border to Israel today.

Egyptian border guards on Wednesday killed a 24-year-old Darfuri as he scrambled over barbed wire barriers in a dash for Israel, an Egyptian official told the Associated Press.

The head of the Northern Sinai ambulance department Imad Kharboush, said he was shot in the back of his head while trying to cross the fence on the Egypt-Israel border early Wednesday.

Three other Sudanese trying to enter Israel with the man were arrested. Two of them were slightly wounded.

    WHAT IS IT WITH EGYPT AND THE ASSYLUM SEEKERS?
    I am just wondering what is Egypt upto these days.

    There is alot of Crime within Cairo on Foreigners.

    Even someone trying to leave your house,WHAT’S THE NEED OF STOPPING HIM/HER????

    Since their is no good hospitality for foreigners in Egypt, why can’t they let them just go????
    Especially the unfortunate Darfurians…

    I just feel SAD that NO ONE files a case against the Egyptian border authority about the killings of these several SUDANESE !!!!
