Christians Released in Eritrea
Monday, May 10th, 2021
Barnabas Fund reports the men were held in the infamous Dahlak Island Prison.
A Barnabas contact says the men are believed to be the last of a group of 66 Christians detained in 2017.
The reason for the latest releases is unknown but an Eritrean church leader told Barnabas it’s likely the Christian men will be forced to join the army.
The men’s release came shortly after authorities freed all but one of 23 Christians arrested at a prayer meeting in March.
It’s estimated that 129 Christians are being detained in Eritrea’s jails, often enduring inhumane conditions.
