Egypt: 22 Killed By Bomb Blast At Coptic Cathedral by tolexy007(m): 11:41am On Dec 11, 2016 |
At least 22 killed and 25 others wounded by blast at St Mark's Cathedral, the main Coptic church in central Cairo. A blast at Cairo's main Coptic Christian cathedral has killed at least 22 people, according to Egyptian state TV . Sunday's blast at St Mark's Cathedral in central Cairo wounded at least another 35 people, the report added. St Mark's Cathedral is the seat of Egypt's Orthodox Christian church and is home to the office of its spiritual leader, Pope Tawadros II. A bomb was reportedly lobbed inside a chapel that is adjacent to the cathedral's outer wall. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. About 10 percent of Egypt's 82-million population are Christians. On Friday, six policemen were killed in a bomb attack in Cairo claimed by an armed group known as the Hasm movement. Timothy Kaldas, non-resident fellow at the Tahrir Institute for Middle East Policy, said intense police activity is expected in Cairo after the two latest attacks. "It is likely that we are going to see the police start a pretty intense search to find out who is behind this and try to arrest or capture as many people of interest as possible," he told Al Jazeera. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/12/egypt-20-killed-bomb-blast-coptic-cathedral
