Extremists loyal to the so-called “Islamic State” in Egypt have attacked a naval patrol ship in the Mediterranean Sea, causing it to burst into flames.

The Egyptian military said earlier a coastguard vessel had exchanged shots with terrorists just two miles off the coast of northern Sinai, an area bordering occupied land  and the Gaza Strip, Daily mail report.

There were no fatalities among the vessel's crew in the shootout with the terrorists, according to a Facebook message posted by military spokesman, Brigadier General Mohammed Samir.

ISIS declared their presence on Sinai  last November when up to 2,000 members of the already established terrorist group Ansar Bait al-Maqdis swore allegiance to ISIS' leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
