At least 23 people - including three foreigners - have been killed and 62 wounded in three blasts in the Egyptian resort town of Dahab, officials say.
The explosions occurred in a bustling area popular with tourists during the early evening when many people would have been out in cafes and restaurants.

Eyewitnesses spoke of seeing debris and body parts in the streets.

Southern Sinai peninsula resorts have been hit before. About 60 people were killed in Sharm el-Sheikh last July.

The attack on Dahab, a low-key resort popular with Western backpackers, budget Israeli tourists and divers, was swiftly condemned.

According to BBC World News, even Hamas condemned this act. It alsop seems they aren't sure if it's home-grown terrorists or Al Qaeda.

And President Bush weighed in with a mispronunciation of "heinous".
