Christians are facing genocide in several countries as the persecution of followers of the religion has increased in at least 18 nations, according to recent research.
The Catholic group Aid to the Church In Need released a report earlier this year titled, “Persecuted and Forgotten? A Report On Christians Oppressed For Their Faith 2020-22,” which highlighted “human rights violations” against Christians in 24 countries.
The group found that persecution increased in 75% of the countries surveyed.
In Africa, “extremism threatens previously strong Christian communities,” the report states. “In Nigeria and other countries, this violence clearly passes the threshold of genocide.”
