Egypt's Security Forces Mistakenly Kill Mexican Tourists

Egypt's military and police accidentally killed at least 12 people on Sunday, including tourists from Mexico and their Egyptian guides, according to media reports. The Egyptian security forces were pursuing terrorist elements in their country's Western Desert area when they came upon the tourist group in a restricted area, a CNN report said. At least 10 more people were injured, and Mexican President Enrique Pe�a Nieto has condemned the incident and demanded that Egypt's government conduct a thorough investigation, a Wall Street Journal report said.
