Gunmen set a Catholic church on fire and kidnapped five priests, one religious sister and two lay people in western Cameroon, where a civil war has been raging since 2017.

"It was with great shock and utter horror that we, the Bishops learned of the burning down of the St. Mary's Catholic Church, Nchang... and the kidnapping of five priests, one religious sister and two lay faithful by unknown gunmen," the statement said. “We insist on this because this act has now crossed the red line and we must say that 'enough is enough,'" read the statement.
