A fire at a Coptic Christian church in the Egyptian capital killed at least 41 people, church officials say.
The blaze ripped through the church in Cairo’s densely populated neighborhood of Imbaba. It was not immediately clear what caused the blaze. An initial investigation blamed an electric short-circuit, police say.
