Egypt: Gunmen Kill 11 at Coptic Christian Church in Cairo
---------------------------------------------------------

In Egypt, gunmen opened fire on worshipers at a Coptic Christian Church
in Cairo on Friday, killing 11 people in an attack that was claimed by
ISIS. Friday's assault was the latest on Egypt's Christian minority; it
follows an attack on a Sufi mosque in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula in
November that killed 305 people.
