    began. Every year the procession participants go to Tsitsernakaberd
    Memorial Complex on April 23 - the eve of the Armenian Genocide
    Remembrance Day. The torch-light procession is organized by
    ARF-Dashnaktsutyun Party.

    A huge crowd gathered in Liberty Square today. Activists carried flags
    of Armenia and ARFD, torches, candles, and placards denouncing Turkey.

    Patriotic songs were sung.
