Al Arish On Fire "Updated"

There are huge clashes since today’s afternoon in Al Arish border city. According to what I understood there were militant group that attacked both the police and the army. It started with an attack on Al Arish second precinct by that militant group after the end of the Islamists’ protest in the city that was peaceful.
According to official sources 3 citizens “including 70 years old man and 13 years old boy” were killed and 28 other citizen were injured.  An army captain was reportedly killed in the clashes.
Updated : 
The death toll has increased in to 4 citizens according to Al Ahram Arabic portal , a 18 years old young boy has passed away after being injured in the clashes while Ashraf Al Anay from Sinai says that the death toll increased in to 7 and while there are 23 injured; 17 are currently treated at the army hospital while the rest are being transferred by army medical helicopters to other cities. 
Here is the photo of the 13 years old boy that shot today while riding his bicycle :( 
After the break there is a video allegedly showing the shooting that took place that killed him and how he was announced dead in the street "Graphic" 

The Eastern military region aka The 2nd division has sent already military support to the city. The Egyptian TV announced from short while ago that the army arrested 4 militants while there are sources claiming that the army will send a special force. 
According to some sources that militant group is connected to Mohamed Dahlan while other sources says that they are connected to some militant group called "The Islamic liberation army". 
There is a huge army presence in the region that has not been seen for decades.
Here is a video shot earlier showing those who think that they are the militants. 

Who let these people enter Al Arish not to mention who are they !? They can't be from the tribes !?
All what I hate in this issue is that the racism towards our Sinai locals is on the rise again , you know the people of Cairo must find someone to hate 

The statue 

Some eye witnesses who spoke to media in Cairo claimed that those militant were wearing black clothes and carrying black flags with the Shahada and chanting Islamic slogans. There are witnesses and sources claiming that there are foreign elements within these militants “!!”
The clashes began with the police and militants and sooner it turned in to confrontation between the army and those militants. According from what I understand the clashes are still on.
According to some source the Statue of late President Anwar Sadat was burnt down.
Al Arish second precinct was torched on February 12th ,2011. 
People are extremely concerned and worried in Cairo to the level that some are actually asking the army to impose a curfew and declare martial laws in the famous border city.
I can’t keep what is taking place currently at Al Arish from what happened in Cairo today or the fact that Mubarak’s trial will be held on August 3rd,2011.

Here is a video showing the sounds of gunshots near the police precinct.

According to the information we got these militants start to rally from Al Rafai mosque at 2 PM and that the army started to have a clash with them at 5 PM . According to Ashraf Al Anany those militants wanted to occupy the governor's building and announce Islamist Principality "!!" 
It turns out the Dahlan connection or rumor came from the fact that the police arrested that gang that stole Bank of Alexandria from couple of months ago and among the thieves were two Palestinians who used to work in Dahlan's force.  


Here is another video showing the militants at the Rafai Mosque after Friday prayers.

I know that there are Egyptians who were killed including a child , including an army officer , I know that our sovereignty was truly insulted today , our army was truly insulted today and our police was insulted today when bunch of militants can not be stopped up till now.
I will not speak about the conspiracy theories , I will not speak about the political meaning of this attack but I know in a respectable country the minister of interior should resign
I know there is an army officer that has been killed today while defending his country , I hope SCAF truly understands this because it is insulting when your army is ranked the 10th in the world and can't end a fight with a militant group all these hours !!
