Remaining Korean Survivors of Egypt Bus Bombing Return Home

The remaining Korean survivors from the Egypt bus bombing returned home on Thursday, exhausted and emotional. Three members of their tour group and their Egyptian driver were killed Sunday when a suicide bomber blew up their bus near the Egypt-Israel border. Paul Yi reports. Four days after a horrifying attack on their tour bus, the second and final group of Korean tourists arrived back home Thursday after their ill-fated trip to Egypt. Upon their arrival, the 15 remaining victims were rushed to local hospitals for medical check-ups, with some needing urgent operations for untreated shrapnel wounds. "We have a member who got a laceration on the leg but couldn't get an operation. The bleeding hasn't stopped." And those who don't have external injuries, are also suffering from hearing impairments from the bus explosion. "Along with medical records they brought, we will start examinations. Treatment will depend on the test results." The tourists, who were part of a church-organized pilgrimage, were traveling from St. Catherine's Monastery, a popular tourist destination in southern Sinai, to Israel when they were attacked on Sunday. An al-Qaeda-inspired terrorist group in the region has claimed responsibility for the bombing, and has since warned all tourists to leave the country or risk further attacks. The body of Jae Jin-su , who was killed trying to block the suspected suicide bomber, arrived on a separate flight on Thursday. Meanwhile, the bodies of the two other Koreans are scheduled to return Friday afternoon, accompanied by their families. Kim Min-ji, Arirang News.
