Yaylaqonaq village, Van is under threat of annihilation aimed to be
turned into a public house.
Construction activities have also started, Haber 1 reported. It's
reported that the Armenian cemetery will be completely destroyed, the
graves and stones are broken which made the bones of dead Armenians
to appear.
The local residents of the village submitted protest letters to the
Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Turkey to make the construction
stop but everything is reported to be in vain. Kurdish oriented BDP
party chief applied to Culture Minister Ertugrul Gyunay.
It was highly recommended to send expert group to study the case,

didn't arrive.
