Catholic aid worker killed in Syria
April 10, 2015
Safouh Al-Mosleh, an Eastern Catholic worker for Caritas Syria, died during the bombing of Aleppo, Syria’s largest city, on April 7.
The situation has worsened in Aleppo in recent days following the fall of nearby Idlib to Islamist rebels.
“Aleppo has been cut off for 16 days, with no telecommunications, Internet or electricity,” Caritas reported. “In the last four days, the situation is even worse with the escalation of mortar shells hitting the city every day.”
