2 #Israelis convicted of illegally entering #Egypt

CAIRO — An Egyptian security official says a court has sentenced two Israeli citizens to two years in prison for illegally entering the country.

The official said Tuesday that a court in the city of Nuweiba, 370 kilometers (230 miles) southeast of Cairo, handed down the sentence a day earlier. The court also fined both men 3000 L.E. (nearly $450).

The defendants have appealed the ruling.

The official said the two men were detained separately in January in the resort city of Taba, some 370 kilometers east of Cairo.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to brief the media. — AP
