ROME, 19 JAN – Anti-Christian persecution in the world is growing globally and Afghanistan ranks first for discrimination (after 20 years, North Korea drops to second, even if persecution increases in the same country). Over 360 million Christians experience a high level of persecution and discrimination in the world (1 Christian out of 7). On the other hand, the number of Christians killed for causes linked to their faith rose to 5,898. These are the main data released by ‘Open Doors’ which are presented in Rome at the Chamber of Deputies. (HANDLE).
