Egypt reopens ancient tombs following 10-year renovation
Two ancient Egyptian tombs have been reopened following a 10-year renovation costing an estimated $2m.
Officials say the economic climate in Egypt is hampering efforts to reopen more revamped tombs - as the country struggles to revive its flagging tourism industry following the overthrow of former President Hosni Mubarak last year.
