Photo credit: WFP\/Abeer Etefa<\/p><\/div> 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, \u201cStop 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<\/strong> what Pope Francis said<\/strong> at the Angelus of 1 May, <\/strong>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.” In this all-out effort which occurred without delay, those who wish to contribute to the cause, can do so by depositing any amount in one of the following accounts: <\/em><\/strong> Description: Syria, Emergency Syria<\/strong> Postal account no. 81065005<\/span><\/strong> code IBAN:\u00a0IT74 D076 0103 2000 0008 1065 005<\/strong> code SWIFT\/BIC:\u00a0BPPIITRRXXX<\/strong> Bank account no. 120434<\/span><\/strong> Banca Popolare Etica \u2013 Rome Branch code IBAN:\u00a0IT16 G050 1803 2000 0000 0120 434<\/strong> code SWIFT\/BIC:\u00a0CCRTIT2184D<\/strong> Made out to: Association <\/strong>Action for a United World<\/a> (Azione per un Mondo Unito \u2013 Onlus)<\/strong> Via Frascati, 342 – 00040 Rocca di Papa (Roma, Italy)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u00abWe need to intervene as soon possible!\u00bb This is the appeal launched for the Syrian population, burdened by a war that has been waging since 2011.
