A missile hit a medical facility in the city of Taba on the Red Sea near the Israeli border early on Friday, wounding six people, the Egyptian Cairo News Channel reported.
The channel said, citing sources, that the explosion was related to the ongoing fighting between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
A witness in Taba, which is about 220 km from Gaza, said he heard an explosion and saw thick smoke and dust rising.
The channel reported the missile hit the ambulance building in Taba and the residence designated for the administration of the city hospital.
The Israeli army stated that it was aware of this security incident, adding that it "occurred outside our borders".
Taba, in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, is popular with tourists. It is about a three-hour drive from Egypt's Red Sea resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh.
