Men, women and children filed in to Cairo's Coptic Christian chapel on Sunday morning, taking a moment of respite from the bustle of the Egyptian capital's busy streets.
Situated in a complex at St Mark's Cathedral, the congregation was worshipping near the seat of the Coptic pope and the heart of their religion.
Minutes later, a blast ripped through the congregation, on the side of the church usually used by women and wounding scores of others in an attack that was chilling even by the bloody standards of Egypt's recent history.

The death toll rose to at least 49 Monday, state media reported. At least 27 people died in a blast inside a church in the northern city of Tanta, and 78 people were injured, according to Egypt's state-run news agency Al-Ahram. In Alexandria, 18 civilians and four police officers were killed when a suicide bomber blew himself up outside a Coptic church, Al-Ahram said.
