Egypt knife attack: 2 killed, 4 injured at Red Sea resort

Two Ukrainian tourists have been killed and four of other nationalities wounded during a knife attack at a beach in Egypt.

The attack happened on Friday at a Red Sea resort in Hurghada, as police said the assailant swam from a nearby beach before stabbing people.

Three of the injured were from Serbia and one from Poland. All six victims are women, Egyptian authorities said.

The attacker was detained at the scene as an extraordinary image shows what appear to be hotel staff holding him down in the bottom of a luggage cart.
