At least 24 officers killed after rocket-propelled grenades strike police van near Rafah, officials say.

Officials said the police officers were in two buses which came under attack from armed men close to the town of Rafah on the Gaza border.

Three policemen were also reported to have been injured in the blast.

The military recently intensified a crackdown against militants in Sinai, where attacks have surged since the fall of Hosni Mubarak in 2011.

No official statement has been released on the incident.
