The victims of the recent attack on a bus near the town of Menya, Egypt, were asked to renounce their Christian faith before being shot, Coptic-Orthodox Bishop Makarios told Associated Press. The assailants ordered the victims out of the bus, they were travelling in, and promised to spare their lives if they would convert to Islam. But “they chose death”, Makarios said, because the Christians are “proud to die while holding on to our faith".
