ISIL says it bombed Italian consulate in Cairo



ISIL says it carried out Saturday’s car bomb attack on the Italian consulate in Cairo, which the authorities said killed one person and wounded 10.  The claim was made via a website that carries the extremist group’s messages, saying that its soldiers detonated a parked car bomb carrying 450 kg of explosive material. The consulate building was severely damaged. Until now, ISIL’s supporters have concentrated on attacking Egypt’s security forces, but this attack suggests a new front against foreigners. The message warned Muslims to stay clear of such “security dens” which it called “legitimate targets”.
