At least two people, including a policeman, were injured after a homemade bomb went off near a police station here, police said today.
The bomb was planted by unknown militants under a police vehicle that was parked near Azbakia police station in one of the crowded areas in Cairo late last night, the police said.
The injured have been admitted to the hospital for treatment, medical sources said.
Security forces are currently investigating the incident and searching for other potential bombs.
Egypt has witnessed a spate of attacks since the January, 2011 revolution that toppled the ex-president Hosni Mubarak.
The attacks targeting police and military increased after the ouster of Islamist ex-president Mohamed Morsi in 2013 by military following massive protests against his rule.
Over 600 security personnel have been reported killed since then.
