Armenian Catholic Cathedral of Aleppo bombed


Amid the unbelievably gruesome news from Nigeria (where thousands have died and, at this moment, 10,000 Catholics have taken refuge from the Boko Haram "Caliphate" in the city of Maiduguri), more news - the hand of the Lord prevented a great massacre in the martyr city of Aleppo, Syria, as the Armenian Catholic Cathedral was bombed on January 9 just hours after it had been filled with worshippers. No one was hurt, thanks be to God.

In the year of the centenary of the Armenian Genocide by the Muslim Turks, the war of Islam against Christians continues relentless - parce, Domine, parce populo tuo!
