Iraq: Mosul attacks on two Christian churches
Assyrian International News Agency: “Two separate bombs struck this morning in Mosul, the Chaldean church of St. George and Syriac Orthodox Church of St. Thomas. The death toll so far is of three dead – a Chaldean Christian and two Muslims – and several wounded. Louis Sako, archbishop of Kirkuk, speaks to AsiaNews of a ‘disturbing message’ ahead of Christmas, keeping tensions high as well as fear of further violence in northern Iraq.”
