          Syrian Christians Celebrate Christmas Eve At Olive Church - Damascus

          A Christian man rings the bell of the Cathedral during the Christmas Eve Mass at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Dormition, also known as the Olive Church, in Damascus on December 24, 2024. Syria's rulers, who toppled Assad's government on December 8 have since sought to assure religious and ethnic minorities that their rights would be upheld. But for some in the Christian community of several hundred thousands, the promises made by the new Islamist leadership have done little to soothe their fears in a country scarred by years of civil war.
