The State Department has released the Eritrea 2014 International Religious Freedom Report.  The government continued to detain or harass members of certain religious groups, including large numbers of Jehovah's Witnesses.  There were no reports of significant societal actions affecting religious freedom.  The Secretary of State designated Eritrea as a country of particular concern under the International Religious Freedom Act in 2004 and renewed the designation in 2014.
