Egyptian security forces have arrested 35 people following Saturday's bomb attacks in Sharm al-Sheikh, which killed at least 88 people.

The arrests came after Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak vowed to hunt down those behind the bombings.

In the worst attacks in decades in Egypt, three explosions - including two apparent car bombings - devastated a hotel, a car park, and a market.

An Italian man on his honeymoon and a Czech citizen have been confirmed dead and at least 20 of those injured are thought to be foreign.

I'm disappointed, the Egyptians usually arrest at least 100 of the usual suspects after a bombing.
