Coptic Christians in Egypt - PTG

A bus carrying Coptic Christians to a monastery in northern Egypt was attacked by gunmen. At least seven people have been killed and 14 wounded. An eerily similar attack occurred last year that claimed the lives of 29 believers.

A spokesperson for the church in Minya, Egypt said the death toll was likely to rise. Traveling by bus, the group was headed to St. Samuel the Confessor monastery in Minya when they came under fire. The monastery is located about 160 miles south of Cairo.
