The building of the prelacy of the Armenian Catholic Church was shelled in Damascus.
According to SANA agency, terrorists put explosive devices on the roofs of two Chrsitian churches in Yaburd district. Crosses in the Virgin Mary Church and Saint Constantine and Helen Church were damaged and civilians were injured.
Talking to the Armenian News-NEWS.am correspondent, a representative of the local Armenian community said these are the Orthodox Greek churches. He noted that the aim of terrorists was to demolish the crosses, not churches.
As reported earlier, the building of the prelacy of the Armenian Catholic Church was shelled in September, too.
