Abstract

The article focuses on the suicide bombings by the Islamic State militants on Christians at Coptic churches in Tanta, Egypt. It discusses the Egypt president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi's declaration of emergency, his meeting with the U.S. president Donald Trump in which he had promised to protect the minority Christians, and beefed up security ahead of Pope Francis' visit.
