Egypt arrests six over failed church attack
Egyptian authorities have arrested six suspected members of a “terrorist cell†behind a failed suicide attack on a church in the outskirts of Cairo, the interior ministry said on Sunday.
A suicide bomber attempted to attack the Virgin Lady Church in the Shobra el-Kheima district on Saturday but blew himself up before reaching his target, officials said.
Authorities said an explosive device hidden underneath his clothing detonated as he retreated due to the heavy police presence around the church.
