A Christian father and his son have been murdered in an Egyptian ISIS hotbed just days after the group vowed Christians were its favourite prey.

The two Coptic Christians were found murdered Wednesday in Egypt's North Sinai, a stronghold of the terror group. 

They said the son was found having apparently been burnt alive while the father, a man in his 60s, had shot multiple times.
