Egypt police foil Alexandria church bombing

Egyptian police said Saturday (June 24th) they foiled a church bombing in Alexandria by arresting a cell including the would-be attackers, AFP reported.

Six members of the extremist cell, including two "suicide bombers" planning the attack on a church, were arrested in Alexandria, the interior ministry said in a statement.

One attacker had planned to detonate an explosive vest inside the church, and the other to blow himself up when police arrived to the scene, the ministry said.
