CAIRO (Reuters) – Three Vietnamese tourists and an Egyptian guide were killed and at least 10 others injured when a roadside bomb blast hit their tour bus on Friday less than 4 km (2.5 miles) from Egypt’s world-famous Giza pyramids, authorities said. At least nine Vietnamese tourists were wounded, as well as the Egyptian driver, according to official statements. In total, 14 Vietnamese tourists had been traveling on the bus, it said. The bus driver later told media he had not deviated from the route. The last deadly attack on foreign tourists in Egypt was in July 2017, when two Germans were stabbed to death in the Red Sea resort of Hurghada.
