FILE -- In this Dec. 9, 2013 file photo, visitors leave Saint Catherine's Monastery on camels, in Saint Catherine, Egypt. The Islamic State extremist group said Tuesday, April 18, 2017, that its militants carried an attack on a police checkpoint near the famed Monastery in Sinai, which Egyptian security authorities said killed one policeman and wounded four. The attack on the monastery, built in the 6th century and a popular site for tourists visiting the Red Sea resorts along Sinai's southern coast, comes just over a week after suicide bombers attacked two churches in the Nile Delta city of Tanta and the coastal city of Alexandria, killing 45 people on Palm Sunday.
