Coptic Metropolitan of Minufia Anba Binyamin spoke out in support of Russian aggression against Ukraine. An Egyptian theologian repeated the conspiracy theories spread by the Russian authorities, causing widespread outrage.
“The war saved humanity from a pandemic, the source of which was Ukrainian biological laboratories. If Ukraine had lived as it lived, the epidemic would have continued, because America has a plan to reduce the world’s population from 7.2 to 2 billion people,” the newspaper quotes him ” Al-Arabi al-Jadida”.
According to him, it was biolaboratories that became the main target of Russian bombardments. According to Russian statements, the strikes are directed at strategic infrastructure facilities. The Ukrainian authorities state that residential areas are also the target of attacks.
