Death toll in Nile Delta church blast rises to 30

Health Ministry deputy of the Gharbia Governorate Mohamed Sharshar says the death toll in the bombing inside St. George’s Church in Tanta rises to 30.

The blast north of Cairo came as Coptic Christians celebrated Palm Sunday.

Hours later, a bombing outside St. Mark’s Coptic Cathedral kills at least 11 people, the Health Ministry says.
