{A huge explosion at a security building in northern Egypt has killed at least 14 people and injured more than 100, officials and state media say.}<\/p>\n
The blast, reportedly caused by a car bomb, led to the partial collapse of the building in the city of Mansoura.<\/p>\n
Interim Prime Minister Hazem Beblawi called it “an act of terrorism”.<\/p>\n
Attacks on Egypt’s security forces and police have increased since the army removed Islamist President Mohammed Morsi in July.<\/p>\n
No group has so far claimed responsibility for Tuesday’s blast.<\/p>\n
Mr Beblawi told satellite channel ONTV: “The state will do its utmost to pursue the criminals who executed, planned and supported that attack.”<\/p>\n
The Muslim Brotherhood – which supports Mr Morsi and has been banned by the interim authorities – condemned the bombing.<\/p>\n
“Muslim Brotherhood considers this act as a direct attack on the unity of the Egyptian people,” it said in a statement.<\/p>\n
