Various of tourists at the pyramids STORYLINE Tourists in Cairo on Tuesday expressed their thoughts on travel safety in Egypt, two days after a crude bomb killed a French teenager and injured 24 others at a famous bazaar in the capital city. The blast Sunday night was the first attack targeting foreigners in Egypt in three years. However, tourists that spoke to AP Television Tuesday said they still felt safe in Egypt and would not consider leaving early. Debbie Boater, a tourist from the United States said being street smart meant safety and recommended taking a guide. "Bad things happen all over the place," said Gary Good, a tourist from South Africa. "Everybody is very friendly so I still feel welcome and I don't feel afraid at all for anybody." Ashraf El Gazzar, a Cairo travel agent however said he could feel the effects of the bombing through "some cancellations" and less work. Meanwhile investigations continued, with latest reports conflicting about what caused the blast. French Foreign Ministry spokesman Eric Chevallier told a news conference in Paris Tuesday that the Egyptian investigation was following two tracks: "On the one hand, two explosive devices thrown from the third floor of a hotel adjacent to the square. Or, two objects placed under a bench," one of which was detonated. Ann Egyptian government spokesman had said a second bomb was found under a nearby bench and defused shortly after the blast. It was unclear whether Chevallier's remarks on the Egyptian investigation were outdated or whether the two theories still stood. A report from the Egyptian crime lab carried in newspapers Tuesday said the explosive device weighed a pound (half a kilogram) and was filled with gunpowder, rocks and pieces of metal. It also said it detonated by a washing machine timer. Washing machine timers have been used in the past in Egypt to detonate explosives, including a series of bombs used against tourism resorts between 2004 and 2006. Sunday' explosion from a homemade bomb hit the busy main square of the sprawling Khan el-Khalili market, a popular tourist destination. The girl, whose name has not been released, was on a trip with 41 other teenage students, the mayor of her hometown said. militants that waged war against the Egyptian state in the 1990s.
