KATHIRAVELI, Sri Lanka — In a worsening climate of impunity as Sri Lanka falls into civil war, Buddhist militants have continued their campaign against Christianity.
Christians in Sri Lanka are calling for help from the international community following a rapid deterioration of law and order in November.
The plea follows an attack Nov. 8 by the Sri Lankan armed forces on refugees sheltered at a school in Kathiraveli, a coastal town in the Eastern district of Batticaloa, as well as demands for Protestant and Roman Catholic schools to cancel all Christmas programs and a church to cease holding services.
