According to the BBC, a car bomb has exploded outside a military intelligence building in the Egyptian city of Ismailiya, north-east of Cairo.
Six soldiers were injured in the blast, which destroyed part of the building's wall and set fire to several cars, the Egyptian army said.
A second car bomb was found in the area, but experts managed to defuse it, AFP quoted officials as saying.
Witnesses said they had heard loud gunfire around the time of the blast.
The area has been cordoned by Police and army troops for security checking.
Ismailiya and nearby areas have seen regular attacks on the police and military personnel by Islamist militants.
The military has been carrying out a wide-ranging operation against militants in the Sinai Peninsula.
