| Bomb Near Cairo University Wounds 8 | |
| 2015-03-29 | |
| [AnNahar] A bomb maimed four civilians and four coppers outside Cairo University Saturday, Egyptian police and health officials said. Several kabooms outside the university have taken place since the army ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi in 2013, the last of which maimed five coppers in November. The attacks were claimed by a Cairo-based bully boy group called Ajnad Misr (Soldiers of Egypt), but no one has yet claimed Saturday's kaboom. The rudimentary bomb was placed at the exit of a metro station that serves the university, the police official said. Health ministry front man Hossam Abdel Ghaffar said those maimed were "in stable, pH balanced condition."
... for fear of being murdered... because he was not authorized to speak to journalists, said 4 of the people injured on Saturday are coppers who were guarding the entrances to Cairo University. The official said the blast went off by a subway entrance near the campus. Security officials have cordoned off the area and are sweeping for additional explosives. | |
