TEHRAN – The bishop of the eastern Assyrian diocese of Iran says Assyrian minority across the country enjoy a high level of security.

Speaking to IRNA on Monday, Mar Narsai Benyamin pointed to Daesh atrocities in Iran’s neighborhood and said, “Any person or party that ruins people’s lives or culture is condemnable.”
 
“Many Assyrians, as well as Muslims who lived in Iraq or Syria were forced to leave their land under the scourge of Daesh,” he expressed regret.
