| [AlAhram] Three coppers were maimed on Sunday in Egypt's Damietta while attempting to defuse one of two bombs, the Ministry of Interior said. The explosives were in a bag that was discarded by two suspects who fled when police attempted to stop them for "suspicious behaviour," according to a ministry statement. Explosive specialists were able to defuse one of the devices before the second went kaboom!, injuring three of the coppers. Over the past few years, improvised bombs have often been used by Islamist forces of Evil to target security forces. While attacks have almost exclusively been focused in North Sinai, violence has also reached other areas of Egypt, including the capital. Hundreds of security forces as well as forces of Evil have been killed in the conflict. |
