Morsi supporters storm schools, two churches in Minya |
2013-08-17 |
[Al Ahram] Supporters of deposed President Mohamed Morsi stormed into two churches and two schools in Upper Egypt's Minya's Mallawi on Friday. They attacked and looted the Catholic and the Anglican Churches as well as the Good Shepherd School and the Tahrir Schools Complex, an Aswat Masriya eyewitness reported. They also torched the Anglican Church, she added. Some residents heard kabooms in the area surrounding the Anglican Church. The source of these kabooms could not be immediately verified. Several churches and Christian facilities have been attacked by Morsi supporters since Wednesday, after security forces moved to forcibly disperse the two pro-Morsi's sit-ins in Cairo which resulted in the killing and injury of hundreds. |
