Egyptian court declares Hamas a 'terrorist' group

An Egyptian court has declared Hamas a "terrorist" organisation, weeks after the Palestinian movement's armed wing was given the same designation, reports said.
A judicial source told AFP news agency that the court issued the verdict on Saturday.
Since Egypt's military ousted former President Mohamed Morsi in 2013, the authorities have accused Hamas of aiding armed groups, who have waged a string of deadly attacks on security forces in the Sinai Peninsula
