Closure of Finoteh Berhan church and destruction of the church property in the Eritrean capital of Asmara (in pictures)


The pictures show closure of Finoteh Berhan church, the worship place for a reformist CopticOrthodox congregation in the Eritrean capital of Asmara, and destruction of the church property. Bibles and other spiritual books from their library and materials such as the attire used by the choir were collected and set on fire by government forces in broad daylight. Some children can be seen in the background watching this drama unfold.
