To The Anniversary Of The Battle Of Van

The time is approaching for the anniversary of the heroic battle of Van (1915).

The Armenian history has memorized the unprecedented and savage killings of Armenians in Historical Armenia carried out by the Turkish government. At that time, 23,000 Armenians lived in Van province, and the Turkish plan to destroy them faced serious problems and resistance.

The self-defense was carried out under the leadership of Aram Manukyan and Armenak Yekaryan. The heroic battle for Van went down in history as an unprecedented battle and an unprecedented victory.
