ARS CENTRAL EXECUTIVE BOARD'S STATEMENT ON THE RECENT ANTI-ARMENIAN ATTACKS ON NOR KYOUGH
By Contributor on June 6, 2014
The Central Executive Board of the Armenian Relief Society (ARS)
condemns, in no uncertain terms, the ongoing, indiscriminate shelling
of Aleppo's Armenian-populated Nor Kyough suburb since June 1.
Following the brutal deportation of the native Armenians of Kessab,
this latest undeniably anti-Armenian military operation has devastated
Nor Kyough.
Along with many casualties, buildings that house Armenian schools,
churches, organizational properties, countless homes and business
premises have been leveled with constant bombardment. As a result, many
Armenian families have been left homeless. Once again, the ARS/Syria's
shelter and the socio-medical center, the only center providing health
care services to the residents, have also been damaged.
We appeal to all powers, the United Nations, non-factions, and
international political and non-governmental organizations, to take
all possible steps to put a stop to the killing of innocent civilians
and the physical destruction of their homes and communal structures.
The Armenian Relief Society, with the full support of Diasporan and
Homeland benevolent, political, and diplomatic organizations, will
do its utmost to relieve the pain and despair of the victims of this
latest assault on Armenian communities of the Middle East.
