Just got awoken from a huge Explosion in Cairo Egypt
Sometime just before 6:30am, windows were shaking and it took me a while to get up and log in here, checked Twitter and news and it was heard in many parts of the city.

Lots of rumors, nothing for sure yet. I hope it was a jet breaking the sound barrier and nothing else.

Will update when I know more.

They are saying on Twitter there was explosion at Italian Embassy, but that's all I'm seeing.

Explosion in Downtown #Cairo. Smoke column behind Maspero and Ramses Hilton. @degner's photos of Italian center

Italian center and part of the consulate were damaged. That was the biggest explosion I have heard in a while.

My guess is the real target was the TV Building (Maspero) and Journalist Syndicate is near there too, but its guarded.

car bomb downtown, I don't think the Italian center was the target, read my previous post. Unless of course the MB and Terrorists want to attack the tourism sector. Have to wait for more details.

another picture - they say this is not the Embassy, it's the Italian Center, but parts of the Consulate were also damaged. I don't know the building what's the center and what's consulate, so I can't tell. Relying on what people report.

Re: Just got awoken from a huge Explosion in Cairo Egypt
HUGE explosion downtown #Cairo destroys the Italian center & part of the Italian Consulate. Sound was heard from a very long distance #Egypt


Why would they blow up the Italian consulate at 6am on a Saturday? In Ramadan? #Cairo

My first thought too...I guess, it puts us back in the MSM for negative news and scares off Tourists.

If you go search hashtag Cairo you will find many pictures, I don't know how to link them here, some work and some don't.

Re: Just got awoken from a huge Explosion in Cairo Egypt
Confused reporting about the #Cairo explosion. Can a serious journalist pls locate the bombing site? Italian embassy, consulate or centre?


So it's not clear yet people, as I said, I don't know what the Italian Embassy looks like, never had to go there, and I don't know what building that is in the picture represents. But the area is downtown behind Maspero and Ramses Hilton

#Egyptian police arrests one of first journalists to tweet pictures at scene of #Italian consulate bombing in #Cairo

I wonder how fast these western journos are always there and tweeting pictures actually...15 minutes after. Meanwhile HUGE crowds and police tries to clear the area. Apparently they see parts of a exploded car and spots of blood. Great...100's of people contaminating a crime scene!

Re: Just got awoken from a huge Explosion in Cairo Egypt
I've heard many booms and explosions the last few years, but except for the biggest ones when they shot the RPG's on the satellites, this was by far the loudest. I almost had a heart attack, this one woke everyone up across the town so you can have an idea. I don't know what this car was doing...I seriously doubt it was meant for the Italian Embassy, maybe they blew themselves up before they could reach their target, which could have been Maspero, the state tv building nearby.

A week ago a car with terrorists and a bomb also blew themselves up before reaching their target when they hit a speed bump in the road.

That's my speculation since they're known to not know how to handle their explosives and frequently blow themselves up.

The stupid Terrorists that are sent to us have no fucking clue about these things. I'm guessing like I said in my previous post, the dumbasses were on their way to the state tv building (Maspero) and hit a bump or whatever and blew themselves up too early. Happens all the time, just a week ago too. MY guess, anyways its too early, I will know more by noon my time. Meanwhile will try to get a couple more hours of sleep.

At 6:28 AM this morning a large explosion hit Cairo as confirmed by Reuters news agency and many people on Twitter. The effect of the explosion spanned a vast area with people tweeting from as far as Garden City, Maadi, Giza, Haram st. and Downtown. The epicenter was behind Ramseas Hilton at the Italian Center. More to follow.
