185 Christians were recently arrested for attending a prayer meeting in the Eritrean city of Maitemenai:
It’s believed the Christians had gathered in the suburb of Maitemenai
to pray about the worsening exodus of Eritreans from the country.
The
UN Special Rapporteur on human rights reports thousands of Eritreans
are fleeing their country every month, despite an alleged ‘shoot-to-kill
policy’ targeting those who try to leave.
Eritrea is currently detaining up to 1,500 Christians because of their faith. Many others face harassment [more].
