Interior Ministry: Two bombs explode on October 6 road

One policeman was injured after two homemade bombs exploded near a police vehicle on the July 25th road on Friday morning, Egypt’s Interior Ministry said.

The road leads to October 6 City on the outskirts of Cairo

The explosion caused the vehicle’s glass to shatter, the ministry wrote on Facebook.

Civil defence teams and bomb squads are currently sweeping the area, it added.

The Ahram Portal reported earlier today that an explosion occurred at a central security forces camp in October 6 City after a bomb detonated. There were no casualties.

Attacks targeting security forces have escalated since former President Mohamed Mursi was deposed last year following mass protest against his regime.
