ARTICLE SNIPPET: “CAIRO — Metro stations in Cairo are on high alert after several bomb threats were made against a single station, a security source said Saturday.
Bomb squads and sniffer dogs have been deployed and metal detectors installed at metro stations around the capital, the source said.
“There were a series of phone calls made threatening to bomb the Shubra Al Kheima station [in northeast Cairo],” the source said, with the latest coming Thursday.
The increased security measures, which include bag searches, have been going on for days but were never officially announced by authorities.
“So security has been heightened at all stations in Cairo as a preventative measure. The police take these matters very seriously,” the source said.
No arrests have been made, as police focus their investigation on the gritty and impoverished industrial suburb of Shubra Al Kheima.”
