Report: 93,000 Egyptian Christians Left Egypt since March -Emad Khalil
Nearly 93,000 Coptic Christians have left Egypt since March, a report by the Coptic Egyptian Federation of Human Rights has said.
Naguib Gabriel, the head of the NGO, attributed the Coptic emigration to hardline Salafi groups seeking to apply Islamic law, to attacks on Coptic churches, and the government's failure to bring attackers to justice.
He said Copts have emigrated to America, Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, Italy, England, Austria, Germany and France.
