Two tourists killed and four wounded in Egypt beach resort stabbing

An Egyptian man with a knife stabbed two female tourists to death and wounded another four at a Red Sea resort on Friday, reportedly shouting at Egyptians to get out of the way so he could attack foreigners. The two women killed were both Ukrainian and the other victims are all believed to be from central and eastern Europe, Egyptian officials said.

The attacker is in his mid-twenties and was captured as he tried to swim away from the scene of the attack. His motives for the assault are not clear, the Egyptian foreign ministry said. He was armed with a large knife. An eyewitness told the Masry al-Yom newspaper that the attacker shouted at Egyptian hotel staff to clear a path as he targeted foreigners on the beach. "Go away, I don't want you Egyptians, you are not wanted,” he reportedly shouted.

Islamist attackers sometimes try to ensure that they are only killing foreigners and not Muslims.

Pictures circulating on social media purported showed to show the wounded attacker being carried away from the beach in a trolley while several men held him down.
