In a shocking escalation of violence that has reportedly claimed more than 144 lives in just one district since September, Ethiopia's ancient Christian heartland is under siege. Orthodox believers have been massacred in their homes and churches razed in a surge of ethnic and religious attacks that rights groups warn could unravel the Horn of Africa's stability. For centuries, Ethiopia has been a sanctuary of ancient Christianity, a place where faith traditions trace back to the fourth century and the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela stand as testaments to one of the world's oldest Christian civilizations." It is a nation where Christianity has long been intertwined with national identity " surviving invasions, famine, and political upheaval. Today, that legacy faces its most serious…...
