…………..
Dear colleagues,
just received a phone call from a colleague visiting the province of Mardin. Apparently, the ancient monastery of Mor Dimet in İzbırak köyü, Midyat (Mardin) has received a demolition order, to be executed in the next few days. I was told that currently a Syriac nun and a monk are living there. I cannot verify anything from here (Istanbul), but would be most grateful if anyone was able to find out more and get in touch (or preferably, inform the media),
