(Cambodia)–Elsewhere, a mob of about 100 Buddhists attacked a church in the southeastern Cambodian village. According to Voice of the Martyrs, the attack came during a Sunday service seven days ago. Observers said the building would have been destroyed if the police hadn’t intervened. Authorities say the rioters blamed a three-year drought on the church. The mob also accused the Christians of having contempt for Buddhists. Please pray for these believers as they struggle in their faith.
