At least seven people have been killed and 14 injured in a gun attack on a bus carrying Coptic Christians to a monastery in Egypt.
The victims were on their way to the Monastery of Saint Samuel the Confessor when assailants sprayed the bus with bullets in an attack similar to one carried out by ISIS last year.
Photos posted online show distraught and injured survivors, including young children, covered in blood.
Other images show lifeless bodies in the aftermath of the attack.
The Archbishop of Minya told Reuters that at least seven people were killed and 14 wounded.
