In the nation of Egypt Sunday, bombings at two Coptic Christian1 churches killed at least 43 people. The first blast took place during a service at St. George’s Church in the city of Tanta. Egypt’s state TV said a bomb was placed under a seat in the main prayer hall. And afterward2, outside Mr.Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Cathedral in the city of Alexandria, a suicide bomber3 set off explosives after police reportedly stopped the attack from entering the church.

The Coptic Orthodox Church was established by the apostle Mark in the 1st century A.D., according to the church’s history. Coptic Christians are a religious minority in Egypt. They make up about 10 percent of the country’s population and they’ve been targeted recently in recent years often by Islamic militants5. The terrorists group ISIS, Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, said it was responsible for Sunday’s bombings.
