Open Doors workers in the country claim that believers, many of them Muslim converts, are sometimes a tiny minority and so are easy targets for insults, being punched, spat at and sexually assaulted. After surveying 231 people earlier this year, Open Doors Germany said Muslim security staff and translators joined in targeting Christians, some of whom reported being too scared to wear a cross or carry a Bible in public. Thomas Muller from Open Doors Germany said that grouping Christians together in the camps and hostels and having more staff from minority groups (Christians and Yazidis) might afford them greater protection. He said, ‘Someone shows a ten-second beheading video and then says, “You're next”.’ Christians who had hoped to be able to live their lives in freedom said, 'We came to Germany and found there is no difference from our home countries at all.’
