A five-year old child was killed on Thursday when an explosion occurred outside his home in a city in Sharqiya, north of Cairo, the governorate's security director said.
Director Meleigi Fattouh said that the child was playing under a tree near his home when the explosive device went off.
Bombings and shootings have surged nationwide since the military ouster of Islamist president Mohamed Mursi in July 2013, following mass protests against his rule.
