With the help of Matrouh tribesmen, the Armed Forces foiled on Tuesday 4/12/2012 an attempt to smuggle missile heads through the western border of Egypt.
A military source said 56 missile heads were discovered in el-Qataan farm in Salloum to be smuggled as part of a broader operation.
The Armed Forces are working intensively to protect Egypt's borders against all attempts to undermine its stability and national security, the source noted.
