This morning, a bombing attack occurred during a mass celebrated at the Catholic university in the city of Marawi in the Philippines, currently believed to be carried out by Islamist terrorists. The barbaric nature of the attack is particularly cruel as it was committed on the first day of Advent preparations against young university students and their teachers, with at least four losing their lives and more than forty injured.

“Today, through our church leaders, I expressed my condolences to the families of the victims. Based on the announcement by Mr. Péter Szijjártó, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Hungarian government will provide 5 million forints in emergency aid to the affected community through the Hungary Helps – Hungary Helps Program” – mentioned by Tristan Azbej, State Secretary, on his social media page.

Hungary stands with persecuted Christians.
