The Egyptian army is bulldozing homes and olive groves in Feb. 2018 to build a buffer zone around the main airport in its troubled North Sinai Province, where Islamic State militants nearly killed the defense and interior ministers in December. The operation, described by residents and military officials, will displace thousands of residents from the hamlets around el-Arish airport, who are being moving to nearby cities where the army says they will receive compensation.
