At least one person was killed and 12 injured in an accidental explosion caused by a butane gas cylinder in the Egyptian canal city of Port Said.
According to Ahram Online's reporter in the field, the gas cylinder exploded after accidently being struck by fireworks, killing 38-year-old Egyptian journalist Salah Hassan.
The explosion, which took place as dozens of protesters opposed to President Mohamed Morsi gathered at the city's Al-Shuhada Square in front of the governor's office.
