This is reported by the BBC.
As noted, the attack occurred 220 km south of Cairo. At that moment the pilgrims were returning to the monastery from Beni-Sueif.
Then the militants drove up in cars and opened fire on the bus.
"At least 23 people were killed and 25 injured," the report said. Nevertheless, no one took responsibility for the attack.
It should be noted that recently the Copts have been repeatedly attacked by militants. Thus, in April, 46 Coptic Christians were killed as a result of an attack by militants on temples.
Recall, as reported by "URA-Inform", earlier in the city of Izmail near one of the nightclubs there was a fight with shooting.
