Meruzhan Mosiyan And Armen Melkumyan – Heroes Of Armenia

Meruzhan Mosiyan and Armen Melkumyan – two ordinary Artsakh boys. Two bosom friends who also became comrades-in-arms in the war. Two legendary commanders. Two holders of the Battle Cross of the first degree.

And one Artsakh for two, for which they died almost on the same August day but with a difference of one year.

This is how we won.
