    Church recognises killings as genocide
    WALES newsbulletin


    THE Church in Wales has become the first member of the Anglican
    Communion to recognise the massacre of at least a million Armenians
    during and after World War One as the first genocide of the 20th
    century.

    >From next month, April 24 will appear in the Church in Wales' official
    calendar as Armenian Genocide Day. The date recalls the day in 1915
    when the Ottoman Empire arrested Armenian community leaders in
    Constantinople.
