Anba Makarios, Bishop of Minya and Abu Qorkas, visited the youngest survivor of Copts bus terrorist attack baby “Kyrellos”, at the military hospital in Cairo. His grace also visited the other wounded in the hospital.
It is worth mentioning that eight gunmen ambushed a bus and two cars, carrying visitors to St. Samuel the confessor monastery in Minya and opened fire at them after checking their identities and asking about their religion. The attack resulted in the death of 28 and the injury of 25 Copts on 26 May.
