Arrest ordered for 40 over Aswan violence

Prosecutors in Aswan have ordered the arrest of 40 people over their involvement in tribal clashes that left 27 dead since last Friday.

 

The clashes between members of the Nubian Daboud village and Beni Helal tribe flared after students from both sides reportedly exchanged insultive graffiti on the walls of a school.
