A number of Coptic movements, most prominent among them the Middle Eastern Forum for Freedom (Muntadá al-Sharq al’Awsat li-l-Hurriyyāt) and Democratic Egyptian Solidarity (al-Tadāmun al-Misrī al-Dīmuqrātī) have protested outside the embassy of the Vatican, demanding Pope Francis and the Security Council to meet to end the ethnic cleansing (killing and forced migration) of Christians in Iraq, due to the actions of ISIS (Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant).
