Saturday,
July 20
'Chorrord Inknishkhanutyun' writes that only 3 ha of the 12 ha
Hersisian forest in the city of Etchmiadzin was left after felling,
but even that small forest poses threat to the environment.
According to the paper, the 1915 Genocide survivors who died from
famine, cholera and typhus were buried in that place. Trees were
planted to prevent the spread of various infections.
"Various establishments and restaurants were constructed here. The fact
is inadmissible from the moral point of view. Besides, in the opinion
of epidemiologists, the area is dangerous in terms of development
of causative agents of cholera and typhus. Biologists say the risk
of infections increases in wet conditions. Besides, water pipes were
laid in the area, their damage could result in serious consequences,"
the paper notes.
