Ismailia: An African man was shot dead by Egyptian police while attempting to cross across the border into Israel, security sources said on Thursday.
"Egyptian police were forced to open fire on a group of African illegal migrants as they attempted to cross barbed wire separating Egypt and Israel, leading one to be killed," an Egyptian security source said.
The unidentified migrant, believed to be in his 30s, is the 14th to be killed at the border.
A second migrant from Ivory Coast was arrested during the same attempt to cross into Israel.
