Mexico City, September 15 (RHC)-- Mexico’s foreign minister is flying to Cairo after Egyptian security forces mistakenly killed 12 people when they attacked a group of Mexican tourists.
Egypt’s Interior Ministry said the crew of an Apache helicopter opened fire on the tourists after mistaking them for Islamist militants.
Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto demanded an explanation from Egyptian authorities on Monday, calling for “an exhaustive, thorough and prompt investigation which establishes responsibility."
