The heavily doctored video appears to show a jihadi firing a rocket at a naval patrol ship in the Mediterranean sea, causing it to burst into flames.
Footage of attack on the ship first emerged in July after the Egyptian military said a coastguard vessel had exchanged shots with militants just two miles off the coast of northern Sinai, an area bordering Israel and the Gaza strip.
The military said it suffered no casualties although it is understood several patrol workers suffered minor burn injuries.
It is not clear whether the footage was filmed in the North African tourist destination.
It comes after the security at a number of popular tourist resorts in Egypt was increased following an attack by ISIS militants on a town just a few hours away.
ISIS declared their presence in Sinai last November when up to 2,000 members of the already established jihadi group Ansar Bait al-Maqdis swore allegiance to ISIS’ leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
The Foreign Office issued a security warning for British tourists visiting Egypt following the Tunisia beach massacre in June in which 38 tourists – including 30 Britons – were killed.
The warning has sparked fears that Egypt’s tourist industry – which makes £3.7bn a year from 900,000 British tourists – could suffer like Tunisia did in the wake of the Sousse attack.
Many Britons have switched holidays booked in destinations such as Spain, Bulgaria, Turkey and Egypt amid fears of heightened terror threat levels across Europe and North Africa.
