    ASSYRIAN GENOCIDE MONUMENT IN AUSTRALIA VANDALIZED AGAIN

    FAIRFIELD

    FAIRFIELD, 6 APRIL, ARMENPRESS: The Assyrian genocide monument in
    Fairfield, Australia was vandalized on Thursday. The dedication plaque
    was damaged and must be replaced, reports Armenpress citing Assyrian
    International News Agency. This is the second time the monument
    has been vandalized. The monument was defaced on August 20, 2010,
    two weeks after its erection on Assyrian Martyrs Day, August 7, 2010.

    The Turkish community in Fairfield strongly opposed the monument
    before it was erected.

    The monument is dedicated to the 750,000 Assyrians that were killed
    by Turks in World War One, between 1915 and 1918, as well as Assyrian
    martyrs from other periods.
