In a special session, the works of the holy antiochian orthodox synod started under the chairmanship of his beatitude John X the orthodox patriarch of Antioch and the entire east. All the archbishops and bishops were present. Only the archbishop Paul Yazzigi was absent because he has been under incaptivation for three years amidst clear international silence. 

It is worth noting that the Holy Synod is going to discuss the general situation in the region with both the human and the humanitarian aspects, besides the details related to the preparation of the great Orthodox Synod. In the end of the works of the synod, the secretariat is going to read a closing statement.
