(CNN) — Egyptian President Mohamed Morsy on Monday condemned a deadly attack hours earlier against soldiers at an army checkpoint at the Rafah border crossing in Sinai, vowing “to capture those who conducted this traitorous attack on our sons.”

At least 15 Egyptian soldiers were killed and nine others wounded Sunday when masked assailants carried out the attack as the men were breaking their Ramadan fast at sunset, officials said.

The Israel Defense Forces blamed terrorists associated with the Global Jihad group for the violence.

“Terrorists in the Sinai region captured an Egyptian military post … killed over 10 Egyptian soldiers and took over two armored personnel carriers,” IDF said in a statement.
