by VOA News

   Egyptian officials say a blast at Cairo's main Coptic Christian
   cathedral Sunday has killed at least five people and wounded 10 others.

   There has been no claim of responsibility for the attack at St. Mark's
   Cathedral in central Cairo.

   Copts make up about 10 percent of Egypt's population.
