Cairo: Egyptian security officials say a bomb blast aboard a train traveling in the Nile Delta north of Cairo has killed four people and wounded nine.
They say the blast took place shortly before midnight on Wednesday and that the four killed included two policemen.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for planting the bomb, but the attack bore the hallmarks of Islamic militants fighting the government of President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, a general-turned-politician who took office in June, nearly a year after he led the military ouster of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi.
