As tensions rise in Egypt, the ISIS has said the nation's cultural icons, like the pyramids and the sphinx, should be destroyed.
Britain's The Telegraph reports members of ISIS have stated that objects shouldn't be the subject of idolisation or worship.
ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi reportedly said destroying the monuments was a "religious duty".
British Muslim political activist Anjem Choudary told presenter Dan Cruickshank: "When Egypt comes under the auspices of the Khalifa (Caliphate), there will be no more Pyramids, no more Sphinx, no more idolatry. This will be just".
