CAIRO, Egypt – Mexico's foreign minister headed for Cairo Tuesday with relatives of some of her country's eight tourists mistakenly killed by Egyptian security forces, demanding an urgent inquiry into an "unjustified attack."
Mexico called on Egypt Monday to swiftly investigate why a group of tourists were mistakenly targeted in what witnesses described as an air strike that killed at least two Mexicans.
Egypt said its security forces killed 12 people, including Mexican tourists, on Sunday after mistakenly targeting their four-vehicle convoy while chasing jihadists in the country's Western Desert.
