Gulf News - Egyptian police shot and wounded a Sudanese man to prevent him from crossing the border illegally to Israel from the Sinai peninsula on Monday, a security official said.
The official, who asked not to be named, told Reuters police opened fire on the 24-year-old after he refused to comply with orders to stop. He was shot in the head.
The official said another Sudanese man, a 29-year-old, was injured in a separate incident after he cut himself while trying to cross barbed wire on the border.
Egyptian police have killed 12 migrants this year who were trying to get into the Jewish state.
