US citizens take refuge at Cairo mission: US



CAIRO: At least three American citizens who were stopped from exiting Egypt have requested refuge at the American Embassy.The White House Monday said it was disappointed with how Egypt was handing of the issue, which U.S. officials have warned could stand in the way of more than $1 billion in badly needed U.S. aid.The growing spat between the two longtime allies reflects the uncertainty as they redefine their relationship nearly one year after the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak following an 18-day popular uprising.
