Cairo, September 14 (RHC)-- In Egypt, at least a dozen people visiting from Mexico have died after Egyptian security forces mistakenly fired on a group of tourists and guides.

Egypt’s Interior Ministry said security forces were "chasing terrorist elements" in the western desert when they "accidentally engaged four four-wheel drives belonging to a Mexican tourist group."

Meanwhile, Egyptian Prime Minister Ibrahim Mahlab and his Cabinet resigned over the weekend, days after the agriculture minister was arrested over corruption.
