Commenting on the Takfiri terrorist groups' kidnapping of the two bishops, Yohanna Ibrahim and Boulos YazijiJohn Abraham, Hizbullah issued the following statement:

The Takfiri terrorist groups continue to provide more and more evidences of its negligence to any covenant, edema, or charter.

They further continue to breach the sanctities, destroy the shrines, kidnap visitors and kill innocent civilians.

In this context, the kidnapping of bishops, Ibrahim and Abraham, and the killing of their driver forms another reflection of these groups' brutality.
As Hizbullah condemns this crime, it stresses that lenience in dealing withthe crimes and track of these groups, makes them more determined on their heinous actions.

In parallel, it wondered about the responsibility of the international community and human rights institutions and their role in addressing these crimes.

Hizbullah urged these institutions not to neglect this role and to take conducive measures in order to prevent these groups from continuing their crimes.
