Hungary is providing 5 million forints in emergency relief to the relatives of the injured and deceased through the Philippines Catholic Charity, Peter Szijjarto said on Facebook.
Hungary, he said, always stood up for Christians around the world. “We strongly condemn the attack on Catholics practising their religion … on the first Sunday of Advent,” he wrote.
