An explosion at a natural gas pipeline in Egypt's restive northern Sinai Peninsula caused a fire but no human casualties, a senior official said on Friday, according to The Associated Press.
North Sinai Governor Mohamed Abdel Fadil Shousha said the explosion took place late Thursday in El-Arish, the provincial capital. He added the explosion will not affect the pipeline's supply to El-Arish's residential areas or an industrial zone in central Sinai.
