Ten-year-old Egyptian girl Maggie Moemen, who was severely wounded in the bombing of Cairo’s St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church last week, died this morning.
Maggie, who was suffering from shrapnel in the brain and lungs damage, had been in a coma since the 11 December suicide attack on a church in the Coptic cathedral complex.
Her passing raises the death toll of the attack to 26.
The funeral service will be held at St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church.
