Terrorist Attack Wounds Seven in Cairo
(New York Times) Mona El-Naggar and Hassan M. Fattah - Ehab Yousri Yassin, a suspect in a deadly bombing April 7 at Cairo's main bazaar, was spotted by security officers on Saturday and during a chase he leaped from a bridge behind the popular Egyptian Museum and blew himself up, wounding three Egyptians, an Israeli couple, a Swedish man, and an Italian woman. Less than two hours later, two veiled women, later identified as his sister and his fiancee, attacked a tour bus packed with Israeli tourists near Cairo's Citadel, firing several shots at the bus but not hitting anyone. The sister then shot and killed the fiancee and then herself.
