Press release

The Syriac Universal Alliance (SUA), an umbrella organization for Syriac-Aramaic Federations worldwide condemns the terrorist attack in the village of Bikfaya. The attack on civilians in general and on Syriac-Aramaic people in Lebanon in special is nothing but to divide Lebanon and badly hurt the Christian Syriac-Aramaic people in the country.

We hope that our Syriac-Aramaic people in Lebanon will not be terrified by such horrible and outrages actions and stay unified together and keep our Syriac-Aramaic and Christian heritage a life. The SUA desires peace for Lebanon, a part of the motherland for the Syriac-Aramaic people.

By this press release we send, on behalf of our organization, our condolences to the families that lost any person on this horrible attack. We ask all our Syriac-Aramaic Christian Churches to pray for the souls of the victims.

President

Gabriel Marawgeh
