Tags: refugees, border, Israel 

Egyptian border police detained six migrants from the Ivory Coast trying to cross illegally into Israel on Friday, security sources said.

Police sent two of the men to a hospital after they sustained serious injuries trying to climb a barbed wire fence along the border, the sources said.

Egypt's Sinai peninsula is the main conduit for traffickers trying to take migrants, mainly Africans, into Israel for work or asylum.
