Blast Outside Cairo University That Wounded 11 Claimed
[Ynet] Terror group Ajnad Misr (Soldiers of Egypt) grabbed credit for the bombing after being active mostly in Sinai.
The blast occurred in a square outside the university at the end of the school day. Six coppers and four civilians were maimed and transferred to hospitals, the interior ministry said in a statement. Later, a statement from the health ministry said the number of maimed had been increased to 11. The murderous Moslem group Ajnad Misr (Soldiers of Egypt), which emerged in January this year, grabbed credit for the bombing in a statement posted on murderous Moslem forums and the group's Twitter account, SITE Intelligence Group said. Islamist murderous Moslems have carried out a series of attacks against police and soldiers, mainly in the remote but strategic Sinai region, since the army ousted President Mohammed Mirsi of the Moslem Brüderbund last year after mass protests against his rule. Cairo University was a focal point for protests against the government that succeeded Morsi until authorities tightened security with the start of the new term this month. Ajnad Misr previously grabbed credit for a series of kabooms outside Cairo University that killed a police brigadier-general on April 2, in an attack targeting security forces gathering near the gates of the university. The attack "came after an increase in the number of killings and abuse against students of the universities," the group said in its statement on Wednesday. "Not too long ago, we avoided targeting the criminal services in the vicinity of the universities, until their crimes increased and proven was their abuse of students not in response to the operations, but a systematic criminality without excuse or justification," the group said.
