Two bombs detonated in the city of Zagazig in Egypt's Nile Delta
governorate of Sharqiya on Sunday night – one in front of a church - but
left no deaths or injuries, reported Egypt's state news agency MENA.

The first explosive device, which was planted under a car, went off in front
of the city's Saint Joseph Church. The second bomb went off close to
Zagazig's Evangelical Church, which is located near the city's security
directorate headquarters.

A sound bomb near the Zagazig's fire department was defused by police,
reported MENA.

Sunday marked Easter for Egypt's Coptic Christians and authorities took
extra measures to secure churches across the country.

Egypt's prime minister toured several churches in Cairo and Giza on Sunday
to appraise security preparations, Al-Ahram reported.

In 2013, anti-state violence by some supporters of Islamist president
Mohamed Morsi was accompanied by attacks on churches, especially in Upper
Egypt.

Last week, a policeman and four civilians were injured in a shooting at a
church in Egypt's second city of Alexandria.

In March, two policemen were injured when unknown assailants opened fire
outside the Franciscan Sisters School in Beheira governorate.
