Description | Hundreds of residents of the city of Minya Al-Qamh in Egypt's Sharqiya Governorate blocked the Cairo-Zagazig highway as well as the city's railway line Sunday morning to protest a perceived security vacuum, Ahram's Arabic news website reported. Gunshots were heard during the protest. Angry protesters also set tires ablaze and placed wooden slats on railway tracks, which in turn brought traffic and train movement to a complete halt. |
