Save The Persecuted Christians brings you news of anti- Christian violence in today’s SaveUs Minute

Armed separatists have kidnapped at least 78 students and their principal from a Presbyterian school in Cameroon's restive northwest region.

A video purportedly of the kidnapped children has been released on social media via men who call themselves Amba boys, a reference to the state of Ambazonia that armed separatists are trying to establish in Cameroon's northwest and southwest regions.

The incident follows only one week after U.S. citizen and missionary, Charles Wesco, was shot and killed in front of his wife and son. Paul Wesco, who had only recently arrived in Cameroon with his wife and 8 children was the brother of Indiana Legislator Timothy Wesco.

At least 400 civilians have been killed in violence since civil unrest broke out in 2016. Tens of thousands have fled the country as refugees, and many are internally displaced.
