Cairo: At least 14 people were killed in clashes between football fans and security forces following a match in Egypt.
Ministry of Health spokesperson Hossam Abdel Ghafar yesterday said the death toll was likely to rise.
The clashes took place outside the Air Defence Stadium where a match between Egyptian Premier League clubs Zamalek and ENPPI was being played.
The incident occurred after supporters of Zamalek, known as Ultras White Knights, tried to enter the stadium without tickets.
A security source said that 17 Zamalek fans were arrested for inciting violence.
More than 70 people were killed in a similar incident after a game in Port Said three years ago.
