Baghdad-Dora- August 15, 2006

A group of terrorists abducted a priest in the city of Dora, in the Asia neighborhood. A phone call by a local source to one of our reporters had mentioned that Father Siroup who serves in the Church of Asia was abducted around 7:15 today.

It’s worth mentioning that the city of Dora is overwhelmed at present by sectarian gangs. These same gangs had bombed several Churches, kidnapped and killed many of our Christian brothers, causing hundreds of them to flee Dora.

ANA – The city of Dora is the home for an Assyrian majority in Baghdad.
