Egyptian Nuclear Power Plant Ransacked
(Egypt Independent-Almasry Alyoum) The site of Egypt's first nuclear power plant in Dabaa was looted and vandalized earlier this week, said Minister of Planning and International Cooperation Fayza Abouelnaga. Reports suggest that the site was attacked by residents in the area who say their land had been confiscated for the project and that they did not receive compensation. The meteorological station, ground water station and many of the offices had been attacked by "organized looters," who took computers, monitoring devices for earthquakes, furniture, cables and transformers. Clashes in Dabaa with Egyptian military police on Friday left 41 people injured.
