Christians of Damascus are marching through the streets tonight in solidarity with Al-Suqalbiya, chanting: “Nothing is more beautiful than dying on the Cross.” A message of defiance from a community that refuses to be intimidated by threats or violence. They are standing with Al-Suqalbiya — publicly and without fear.

The Druze and Christians of Swaida are celebrating Assad’s collapse in their region. Assad’s departure is inevitable, and instead of dwelling on fears about our community’s future, we must focus on securing safe and fair representation for the Antiochian Greek community.

Militiamen loyal to Al Sharaa asked a civilian, “Are you Druze?”—then executed him on the spot while chanting “Allahu Akbar.” This is exactly why U.S. sanctions on Syria must remain in place.

A suicide bomber targeted St. Elias Greek Orthodox Church in Dweilaa, a working-class neighborhood in Damascus. This church stands in a district built by strugglers — families from the poor villages of South Syria and Homs who rose through education and hard work. But the sons of vipers cannot tolerate even the symbol of dignity and resilience. They aim to destroy what remains standing. Pray for your Antiochian brothers and sisters.

Video from Latakia: Sunni mobs attacking Alawite neighborhoods, while the world keeps appeasing Ahmed Al-Sharaa. This isn’t “post-conflict chaos” — it’s sectarian violence in plain sight. Silence and normalization only encourage more blood.

At night, in front of Saint Elias Church in Damascus, they were praying the Hail Mary — only one kilometer away from the place where Saint Paul once fled persecution. In the same streets where faith began, terror now walks.

The rebels have crossed the bridge over the Orontes River, moving from Hama toward Homs. It appears they are poised to seize Homs, potentially cutting off the road between the coastal region and Damascus before advancing toward the capital. This is a significant development.

From Saint Elias Church, our people stood in defiance. Voices raised in unison, chanting as the blood of the victims still stained the floor: Christ is risen! Their faith did not waver. Even in the face of terror, they proclaimed life over death, and hope over fear.

In Gaza, only around 300 Christians remain. Despite war, bombardment, and decades of Hamas rule, today the community gathered at Saint Porphyrius Church to celebrate several of their high school students graduating with honors and outstanding academic achievement. Even in the darkest circumstances, they continue to choose education, faith, and life. As one of the world’s oldest Christian communities slowly disappears, the Middle East loses an irreplaceable part of its history.

We are not asking the Greek government for money or visas. We are asking for something far more meaningful: to use its diplomatic voice to call for an urgent U.N. meeting on the situation of Syrian Christians after the Saint Elias Church massacre. While your brethren mourn their loved ones today, let their cries be heard in the halls of international power.

A jihadi from Gaza, originally from Khan Younes and now Sharaa’s second-in-command, stood with his unit—calling themselves the Syrian Army—at the Umayyad Mosque and declared: “We didn’t come here to stop. Be patient, Gaza—we’re coming to Jerusalem.” These are the people Netanyahu wanted to make peace with.

Today, the village of al-Bayda bids farewell to Hassan Jarouj, an Antiochian Greek Christian. To our brothers and sisters in Greece, Cyprus, and across the worldwide Greek Orthodox community: Hassan belonged to the ancient Church of Antioch — the same Byzantine Orthodox heritage that has connected Antioch, Greece, and Cyprus for centuries. As Hassan is laid to rest, the words of Father Elias Asber, priest of St. Joseph Church in Essen, Germany, carry particular weight. Father Elias himself comes from al-Bayda, the same village as Hassan. Speaking to his people after Hassan’s death, he called for a “serious, clear and transparent investigation” and reminded them: “Reconciliation does not mean burying the truth, and Christian forgiveness does not mean abolishing justice.” He urged Hassan’s family, the Church, and the people of al-Bayda to stand peacefully for truth and justice, without revenge or sectarian hatred. Today Hassan is being buried. May God receive his soul, comfort his wife, protect his children, and give his family strength. Christian forgiveness does not erase justice.

Ma’aloula, the only place in the world where the language of #Christ is still spoken, has been cut off from the outside world for two days. The same jihadist group that previously kidnapped 13 nuns from the Monastery of St. Thecla in Maaloula—Jabhat al-Nusra—has returned to the town, declaring a “victory” over its Christian community and its ancient monastery. For the past two days, Maaloula has been completely cut off, with no internet or communication. The town is besieged by these Islamist forces, and there is a growing fear that a massacre may already be unfolding. Immediate action is needed to prevent a tragedy. Media outlets and Western and Arab diplomats must direct their attention to Maaloula. The embassies of Italy, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar are urged to act swiftly to ensure access to the town and protect its people and heritage. Silence and inaction now could lead to an irreversible catastrophe.

Elementary school children marched at the Damascus Book Fair chanting “Allahu Akbar” and “Gaza is our motto” — slogans widely associated with Hamas. This raises serious concerns that a new generation is being shaped around militant narratives with potentially far-reaching consequences.
