Egypt bomb survivors offered counselling, support
Local officials say trauma counsellors will be made available to assist a group of Durban travellers - who were in a tour bus when a roadside bomb exploded.
They're from churches on the Bluff, Amanzimtoti, Wentworth and Benoni and were on pilgrimage with St Francis Xavier Catholic Parish.
They were making their way through Giza - when the bomb went off.
"The glass shattered, the windows shattered in the bus - as it past this roadside bomb."

Father Brett Williams, Chancellor of the Durban Archdiocese says they're relieved everyone's safe.
"The pilgrims are back in South Africa - they landed at OR Tambo in Johannesburg. All of them seem safe and sound."
Eric Appelgren's with International and Governance Relations. He says the group arrived in Durban last night.
"I think the most important thing is to find a way of working with the leadership of the local churches and professional counsellors to see how we could help counsel all the members so that they can find ways of dealing with the trauma experienced during that bombing."
