Ismailia police arrested five Palestinians who had entered the country illegally.
Security forces assigned to secure vehicle and pedestrian ferries at the west side of the Suez Canal, west of Ismailia, found five Palestinians attempting to cross to the eastern side. They were in possession of a car but did not have ownership documents.
The five admitted entering the country through tunnels below the eastern borders of the town of Rafah, in northern Sinai.
The defendants were taken to the prosecution, and other legal actions are also undertaken.
