20 Egyptian Christians beheaded in Libya laid to rest in Minya church

The laying to rest of 20 Egyptian Christians beheaded in Libya in 2015 tops coverage of Egypt in the international press. The bodies were repatriated earlier this week. The burial is a “chance for some closure” for the victims’ families, who cried at the funeral service but said they are happy their remains were returned to their home villages in Minya, Reuters reports.
