Pope: We have 50 Coptic monasteries in Egypt

In his interview with DMC channel, Pope Tawadros II, Pope of Alexandria and Patriarch of St. Mark See, said that Egypt has 50 Coptic monasteries including 10 for nuns and 40 for monks.

He explained that many Egyptians prefer to visit these monasteries, which made the decision to prevent religious trips even harder.
