At least three people were killed and dozens injured from a
massive car bomb outside Cairo's police headquarters on Friday morning. (The picture is from a previous incident).
The Egyptian capital of Cairo has been shaken by a massive explosion.
The blast, originating from a car bomb detonated right next to the
city's police headquarters, was powerful enough to destroy much of the
structure of the building.
Egyptian media reports at least 3 killed and dozens injured.
The bombing, which took place at 6:30 a.m., left the center of Cairo enveloped in smoke, reports Al Arabiya. Gunshots were also reported to have been heard in nearby buildings following the explosion.
The attack comes on the heels of a constitutional referendum
that passed overwhelmingly last Thursday, which promised a "democratic
transition" by the interim military government, and which was boycotted
by ousted President Mohammed Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood.
Hmmm.
