A watchdog group that monitors religious intolerance across Europe is reporting a significant spike in hate crimes directed at Christians during the month of May.
According to the Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination against Christians in Europe, 37 documented incidents took place last month targeting churches, Christian institutions, religious symbols, and individual believers — averaging more than one attack every single day.
Of those 37 incidents, 13 involved arson, making May the worst month of the year so far for fire-related attacks on churches and Christian sites.
