On the World Day of Victims of Violence Based on Religion or Belief, we remember those who were persecuted and killed because of their faith.

For centuries, Jews have been persecuted, expelled, and killed simply because of their identity.

We know what it means to live in fear for one’s beliefs. That is why we stand alongside Christians, Druze, Yazidis, and other communities in our region that today are facing persecution — and we support their right to live and worship freely.
