Security forces have this morning, Monday 29 May, dismantled a small bomb that was left in front of Anba Barsoum al-Erian Monastery [monastery here denotes a church complex not an active monastery with resident monks] in Maasara, Helwan south of Cairo.
According to a church source, the church guard found a paper box in front of the gate this morning. He examined it and found a bomb inside. He quickly informed the security forces who promptly dismantled it and cordoned the area off, denying any entrance to the monastery for security reasons.

Watani started as an Egyptian weekly Sunday newspaper published in Cairo. The word Watani is Arabic for “My Homeland”. The paper was founded in 1958 by the prominent Copt Antoun Sidhom (1915 – 1995), who strove for the establishment of a civil, democratic society in Egypt, where all Egyptians would enjoy full citizenship rights regardless of their religious denomination. To this day when Watani is published as a weekly paper and an online news site, the objective remains the same. Those in charge of Watani view this role as a patriotic all-Egyptian vocation. Special attention is given to shedding light on Coptic culture and tradition as authentically Egyptian, this being a topic largely disregarded or little-understood by Egypt’s media. Watani is deeply dedicated to offer its readers high quality, extensive, objective, credible and well-researched media coverage, with special focus on Coptic issues, culture, heritage, and contribution to Egyptian society.
