Egypt reported that radioactive material was stolen from the site a nuclear power plant on its northern coast, according to Reuters.

The plant, which is unfinished and would be Egypt's first nuclear power plant, is located in a town called Dabaa and is west of Alexandria on the Mediterranean Sea. Protesters have been demanding the plant be relocated because they have lost land to the project. But the sit-ins escalated on January 13 and government security forces clashed with demonstrators.
