A new wave of clashes in Syria has caused problems to the Armenian
neighborhoods.
Zhirair Reisyan, Spokesman for the local diocese of the Armenian
Apostolic Church (AAC), informed Tert.am that cemeteries are in the
dangerous zone, and people cannot bury their dead.
"Fortunately, the Armenian community has not had losses in recent
days," Mr Reisyan said.
After militants seized the Sheikh Maqsud district, which is of
strategic importance, some Armenian districts are exposed to danger.
Some Armenian families have been evacuated from Sheikh Maqsud. Others
have to stay at home in Sheikh Tahanie and are receiving aid.
The city hardly has power supply and telephone communication.
