YEREVAN, OCTOBER 17, ARMENPRESS: Russian information - analytical
portal Pravda dwelled on Armenian aircraft landing in Erzurum
transporting humanitarian aid to war-torn Syria and on Armenian
historic city of Erzurum . As Armenpress reports citing Pravda.ru
the author the article Lisa Karpov wrote " Turkish authorities have
searched a civilian aircraft traveling from Armenia to Syria after
it was made to land in the eastern city of Erzurum.
Ankara demanded an on-the-ground cargo inspection as a condition of
flying through so-called "Turkish" airspace. Erzurum was also a major
deportation center during the Armenian Genocide in 1915.
Ironically, an Armenian city historically, Erzurum was also a major
deportation center during the Armenian Genocide in 1915. In April 1915,
about 450 prominent Armenians of Erzerum city were imprisoned.
Most of them were intellectuals, community leaders, journalists and
merchants. In early May 1915, they were all executed. The city was
also the site of the Hamidian massacres (1894-1896) of the city's
Armenian citizens.
Armenian "Air Armenia" company aircraft transferring humanitarian cargo
to Aleppo on the initiative of "Help your brother" landed Erzurum on
October 15.
Earlier Turkish NTV had declared as if the plane had been forced to
land on suspicion of transferring not humanitarian cargo. Armenian MFA
declared that the landing of Armenian plane was initially planned and
was done according to the agreement. The plane has passed a technical
examination in Erzurum.
