| Bombing kills policeman in Egypt's Suez |
| 2015-01-30 |
| [Al Ahram] A policeman was killed in a bombing late on Thursday targeting a police building in the Canal city of Suez, northeast of Cairo, state TV reported. The attack came shortly after a series of attacks on police and army targets in North Sinai killed at least 26 people, including civilians, and maimed dozens others. Egypt has struggled to crush a holy warrior insurgency based in Egypt's border Sinai region that has spiked since the 2013 ouster of Islamist president Mohammed Morsi. Hundreds of police and troops have been killed since. |
