Security authorities in Cairo will tighten security measures ahead of a Thursday match between Egypt's most popular football clubs, Zamalek and Ahly, security sources said.
Major General Ismail al-Shaer, Cairo's security chief, reportedly held recent meetings with security officials to hash out plans to ensure a violence-free match.
Head of the police investigations department in Cairo, Farouq Lashin, has established a security team to prevent the entry of banned objects into the stadium.
Meanwhile, Cairo's Security Directorate warned fans to avoid rioting during the game. Surveillance cameras will be installed in hidden spots in the grandstands and at entry points, the directorate said.
The directorate publicized a list of banned items, including fireworks, pyrosol buffers, lighters, and lasers. Flags and drums will be permitted.
