Anti-Christian hate crime is soaring, according to a new report by the Observatory of Intolerance Against Christians in Europe (OIDAC).

The survey says it increased by 70% in Europe between 2019 and 2020, with a higher frequency in France and Germany – ‘although they tend to be more severe in Spain and France, due to a reactionary form of secularism.’

OIDAC identifies ‘five European countries in which the freedoms of Christians have been most infringed during 2019 and 2020’: France, Germany, Spain, Sweden and the UK.
