“At least 20 people have been killed and 52 more are injured after a ‘terrorist attack’ on a Greek Orthodox church in the Syrian capital on Sunday, according to the country’s health ministry. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, but Syria’s Ministry of Interior Affairs told CNN that it was carried out by a ‘suicide bomber affiliated with the terrorist organization ISIS.’ He opened fire on the congregation of Mar Elias Church in Damascus, before ‘detonating himself using an explosive vest,’ the ministry said in a statement. A mass was being held at the church at the time of the attack, according to Syria’s state news agency SANA.” (06/22/25)
