Christian militias

Christian militias are armed groups consisting of individuals who identify with Christian beliefs and often see themselves as defending their faith, communities, or political interests through military means. They may operate independently or alongside national military forces, and their motives can range from religious persecution to political advocacy. These groups can vary widely in size, organization, and ideology, sometimes engaging in violent actions. While some claim to seek protection of Christian values, their actions can be controversial or illegal, and they often influence conflicts or security dynamics in regions with religious or political tensions.
