Islamic State in Egypt: A ‘Fiery Summer’ Awaits ‘Worshippers of the Cross
After the foiled suicide attack on the ancient temples of Karnak in Luxor, Egypt—a tourist designation—the Islamic State has promised a “fiery summer” for the Christian Copts and Sisi government.
The jihadi group vowed to unleash a number of suicide bombers—or “martyrs”—to target both groups.
Abu Zayid al-Sudani, a leading member of the group, tweeted the following on his account: “The bombing of Luxor, a burning summer awaits the tyrant of Egypt [President Sisi] and his soldiers, and the worshippers of the cross. This is just the beginning.”
What a surprise.
