ISIL claims deadly attack on Egypt Christians
The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) jihadist group on May 27 claimed responsibility for an attack on a bus in central Egypt that killed dozens of Christians, its propaganda arm said.
"A security detachment from the Islamic State carried out an attack yesterday in Minya, targeting a bus carrying Copts and taking the lives of 32 of them," Amaq reported. Egypt's prime minister said in a statement late on May 26 that the official death toll had risen to 29.
