Mines and bombs found in Suez desert
2013-11-30
[Egypt Independent] Police forces found 150 mines, two cannons and two mortar bombs lying in desert at the Suez-Cairo road, 30 kilometers before the city of Suez, said the head of Suez Security directorate Khalil Harb said on Sunday.

"The confiscated items were examined by bomb disposal experts from the Civil Defense Directorate of Security Suez to search for explosives in them," he said in a press statement.

The Third Field Army, in addition to army bomb disposal experts, were contacted to help remove the mines and weapons, while the military prosecution takes over the investigation.
