Many cities have been destroyed in Syria and where there is electricity, it is only for some moments of the day. As violence intensifies, the Council of the heads of the various Christian confessions in Aleppo, launched an appeal to the international community to say, “Stop the destruction and desolation. Enough with this factory of weapons for a devastating war.”
“We want to say to all those involved in this situation that we will not forget what Pope Francis said at the Angelus of 1 May, and that we are one with them and continuously praying that all this intolerable brutality we are all victims of, will come to an end soon.”
To repeat the words of a friend who was recently in Damascus, “We are there with you and will do all we can to help you and support you, not only with our prayers but with all the initiatives possible. I know, and we know, that you are experiencing one of the greatest sufferings also due to the cold, lack of electricity, and unemployment! We must intervene as soon as possible. We are by your side, and thank you.”
