A Christian native missionary in Myanmar says “more than 200 Christian ministers” have died of COVID-19 as the military government restricts medicines and oxygen supplies.
In addition, “due to the civil war in my mother’s native village, about 90 families had to flee to the forest for their safety” last week, the missionary said.
His observations were confirmed by aid workers who reported a rising death toll among Christian leaders. “At least 60 pastors” died in the Chin region alone during Myanmar’s “third wave of COVID,“ Christian charity Barnabas Fund told Worthy News.
