Egypt continues to undergo a formidable crackdown on freedom of the press, freedom of association, among other major civil liberties under the guise of combating terrorism. The attacks against Copts by Egyptian Islamists have risen dramatically in the past several years with over 100 Copts killed in 2017 alone. The focus this year will be on the various ways in which Copts suffer daily discrimination and persecution in Egypt and recommendations to help them achieve equality.
