This month has witnessed dramatic events in both Syria and Egypt.
US president Donald Trump launched a missile attack on Syria while shocking attacks on Christian churches in Egypt took place on Palm Sunday. Since then ISIS have claimed responsibility for an attack on an Egyptian police checkpoint near Saint Catherine’s Monastery in Sinai.
What is the current situation for Christians in Syria and Egypt who much of the world seem to have forgotten? Will US military action against President Assad benefit them and why is Pope Francis still resolved to visit Egypt at such an unstable time?
