At least 49 people have been killed and more than 130 wounded in a string of bomb attacks in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh.
The first explosion took place in the Old Market area, popular with tourists.
Other blasts followed in the nearby area of Naama Bay, which is packed with hotels. One blast tore off the front of the four-star Ghazala Gardens hotel.
Britons, Dutch, Qataris, Kuwaitis and Egyptians were among the casualties, police sources said. Police sources said initial investigations suggested there had been at least four and possibly seven car bombs.
