Communities on the Greek island of Crete are still in shock after a series of attacks on Churches in Chania, Rethymno and Iraklio, where icons were defecated on and offensive slogans about Christians sprayed on church walls.

The latest incident occurred at the Church of Aghia Pelagias in the Pachia Ammos region of Lasithi, where authorities noticed the same pattern of attack, namely the defecation on holy icons and objects including at the holy altar of the church and spray-painted anti-Christian graffiti on the walls.
