I'll make my question very short.

Thank you for being here.

As you know, the Syrian conflict has now been going on for five years. Many individuals have been displaced—millions, more than half the population. In the case of the Syrian Christians there, what's their situation like? Can you elaborate on the situation of the Syrian Christians who are in Damascus, and that of those outside of Damascus, where it's much more dangerous?
