In Egypt, a police conscript was killed and three others were injured when unknown assailants opened fire on three police vehicles on Cairo-Fayoum Ring Road. <br/><br/>The interior ministry said in a statement yesterday that the injured were transferred to the hospital while security forces were combing the area of the incident in search of the attackers. Egypt has witnessed many terror attacks since the January 2011 revolution that toppled former president Hosni Mubarak.<br/><br/>The attacks, mainly targeting police and military, increased after the ouster of Islamist ex-president Mohamed Morsi in 2013 by military following massive protests against his rule. Hundreds of police and army personnel were killed since then.
