UN envoy in solidarity visit to Syria's Assyrians

UN envoy Staffan de Mistura paid a surprise visit on March 1 to a church near war-wracked Syria's capital in a show of solidarity with the country's Christian minority targeted by jihadists.
      
An AFP photographer said de Mistura travelled in a two-car UN convoy to a Greek Catholic church in Jaramana, southeast of Damascus, and met with priest Toma Asitivo Kaka.
