Egypt: Security Forces Kill Militants in Alexandria

Three militants shot and killed in Alexandria

At least three militants, from the Islamist Hasm terrorist group, were shot and killed in a firefight, after Egyptian security forces discovered their hideout in the city of Alexandria. Further information was not immediately available.

Those operating or residing in Egypt should be aware of the increase in terrorist attacks. Further attacks should be expected, including in Cairo and Alexandria. Bomb and gun attacks have taken place in locations across Egypt outside of the Sinai Peninsula. Attacks against travellers continue to pose a threat. Maintain heightened vigilance in tourist locations and in crowded places. There is a significant security presence in most places frequented by Westerners, making a more attractive target for terrorists. Small explosions occur on a regular basis in Cairo and in other areas of Egypt. Attacks are generally directed at security forces, government buildings, police stations, metro stations, universities and tourist destinations. Report any suspicious packages, activity or behaviour to the local authorities and remain vigilant.
