Nine people were killed today (December 29, 2017), after a radical Muslim gunman opened fire at a Coptic Orthodox Christian Church near Cairo, Egypt, according to the CNN website.
The Ministry of the Interior said the attacker, who police shot dead, was 33-year-old Ibrahim Ismail Moustafa, and he was known to have participated in five different attacks between 2016 and 2017.
The attack was carried out at the St. Mina Coptic Orthodox Church in Helwan, a district south of Cairo.
Witnesses said the worshippers were gunned down outside the church on their way out after the service.
