Franciscan Father Francois Murad died after fighters linked to the
jihadist group Jabhat al-Nusra attacked the monastery he was staying at,
local sources say.
Catholic Online links to amateur footage purporting to show the 49-year-old's horrific death and claims:
"The Vatican is confirming the death by beheading of Franciscan Father,
Francois Murad, who was martyred by Syrian jihadists on June 23."
"It shows a man the channel understands is the priest, sitting
cross-legged with his hands bound, alongside two other men while
fighters surround them chanting “Allah Akbar”....
Father Murad, is beheaded with what appears to be a kitchen knife,
several observers are seen stepping close to his body to capture
close-up photographs and video....
"Speaking to Syria Report,
he added: "The world must know that the support of gunmen by the west
is helping extremists in killing Syrians. With such stances, not a
single Christian will remain in the east.""...
