Part 2/10:
According to the report, in just one year—2024—there have been 284 cases of vandalism against churches. Other severe incidents include 55 cases of arson, 28 gun-related attacks, 14 bomb threats, and 47 threats or disruptions targeting church services. These figures indicate a significant escalation compared to previous years, with the current numbers roughly doubling those seen in 2022.
These statistics paint a grim picture of intolerance and violence that, surprisingly, remains underreported and under-discussed in mainstream discourse. Despite the evident increase, the topic of threats against Christianity tends to be overshadowed by other narratives, especially in the context of religious discrimination.
