Eritrea has arrested 200 Evangelical and Pentecostal Christians in house-to-house raids, in a tough new crackdown which is tearing children from their parents. Young children and a baby are among those arrested. It is feared they could spend their childhood in a prison cell. Release International is calling on Eritrea to free the Christians and
