Two young men's bodies have been found decapitated in Egypt's North Sinai, south of Rafah city, early Sunday morning.



Local witnesses told Reuters' Aswat Masriya website that unidentified assailants kidnapped the two men the previous day and that their corpses were found later in a desert area.



North Sinai locals have found several decapitated corpses recently amid continuous unrest in the peninsula.



On Friday, locals found the decapitated head of a young man who had also been kidnapped.



And two weeks ago, residents discovered four decapitated bodies of men in the North Sinai town of Sheikh Zuweid. Security forces said the victims, abducted two days earlier, might have been targeted for perceived cooperation with the army and police.



A video released Thursday, attributed to the Sinai-based militant group Ansar Bayt Al-Maqdis, showed the beheading of four Egyptian men, accusing them of providing information that helped an Israeli drone strike kill three of the group's fighters last month.



Police say they are investigating the [latest] incident and suggest that "jihadists could be behind it.”
