Abducted by Bandits and Forgotten by the World - Aleteia

While Fr Michel (see the short film at the end of the above post) happened to be travelling on the same bus as Fr Ishaak Mahfoud, a Greek Orthodox priest, in February 2013 they were both abducted at a checkpoint. Fr Hassan Tabara, a Melkite Greek-Catholic, went missing while visiting his mother in Damascus.
