It seems the 22-year-old terrorist with a suicide vest exploded himself on the side of the church where women and children sat, separated from the men.

The bomb reportedly went off as the priest was saying the prayer of the Consecration of the Elements, according to a report by World Watch Monitor (WWM).

At least 50 others were injured by the blast, and 14 remain in critical condition.

One of the victims, Amany Aziz, 32, had a premonition of her death.

"I was attending the Mass with my wife as usual," Wagdi Wageh, the widower of Amany told WWM. "Suddenly we heard a huge explosion, the lights went off and the ceiling on the women's side of the church collapsed. I rushed over to search for my wife.

"Rubble, dust and broken wood of the pews covered most of the bodies. I only recognized her by her clothing—her face was covered with blood and dust."

Several young people from the church helped Wagdi carry his wife out and put her in an ambulance. Sadly, she never regained consciousness.

"The day before the bombing, my wife felt that she would soon die; she was acting as if to say goodbye," Wagdi recounted. "My sister phoned us and said she would like to come to visit, my wife replied, ‘Wait for tomorrow and you will attend my funeral.'

"On Saturday evening, my wife also prepared a present, gave it to my mother and told her ‘this is to remember me by.'"

"Although I feel great pain, I'm sure that she is in a very good place in Heaven. She was always praying, reading in the Bible and going to church. Pray for us."

Witnesses to the explosion described horrifying and chaotic scenes as a wall and ceiling of the church collapsed on worshippers, and frantic efforts to find loved ones trapped under rubble and broken pews.

This church CCTV shows a man in a long coat walking towards the church and a guard, Nabil Habib, running after him, immediately before the terrible blast. Both the suicide bomber and the guard were killed, according to WWM.

The suicide bomber apparently visited the church at 11pm the night before the attack, after the priest had finished the evening prayer. The man was carrying a black case, said he was Muslim but wanted to find out more about Christianity. He asked if he could enter the church and talk to a priest, and he was advised to return the next day at 10am.

Some recognized the bomber from that encounter when they saw his photo on the news days later.

Emad Thabet, a deacon at the church, told WWM: "We heard the sound of a very huge explosion and the whole church became dark. White dust filled the church, and there were screams everywhere, and bodies of the dead and the injured. You could see body parts, and blood splattered all over the place.

"A large part of the church ceiling collapsed, windows shattered, the main door fell down, icons were destroyed and the pews on the right side of the church were broken and destroyed.

"She was single and was an active servant of the church, she taught the Coptic language and was loved by all the church members," Father Anton told WWM.

"She was kind and humble and had a strong relationship with God. She lived like an angel on the earth, loved all people and a smile was never absent from her face. She was always talking about martyrs and she hoped to be like them.

"Those who were martyred in this incident moved from the Mass on the earth to the Mass [in] Heaven to complete their prayer with Jesus Christ"...
