Egypt officials say roadside bomb kills 2 and wounds 24
Security and medical officials say a roadside bombing in Egypt has killed two policemen and wounded 24 others.

Police Brig. Gen. Khaled al-Hameed says the blast targeted a bus carrying conscripts in the Nile Delta province of Beheira early Monday morning. Deputy Health Minister Alaa el-Deen confirmed the casualty figure.

No group has immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.

Attacks on police and military personnel have become increasingly common outside of the restive north Sinai, where the government has been battling an Islamist insurgency since the military overthrew Islamist President Mohamed Morsi in 2013.

Last week, a massive car bomb claimed by the local Islamic State affiliate ripped into a national security building in a residential neighborhood in Cairo, wounding at least 29 people.
