CAIRO, May 30 (Aswat Masriya) - The two bombs found in Cairo's Nasr City on Friday morning contain no actual explosives, an Interior Ministry spokesman said.

The  Middle East News Agency quoted the head of Cairo's Explosives Department earlier as saying that bomb squads defused two home-made bombs found on Abdel Razek al-Sanhouri Street in Nasr City this morning.

Shortly after, the agency reported Major General Hani Abdel Latif as saying that the two objects identified as bombs did not contain anything but sand and nails.
