ARS Condemns Anti-Armenian Attacks on Nor Kyough

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 residents, have also been damaged.

We appeal to all powers, the United Nations, 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.

  1. The appeals you transmit is going to deaf
    EARS unfortunately. Until when we shall continue to expect help from outsiders? Only
    Force can neutralize force. Organize yourself.
    This war in Syria seems to last longer than
    Expected.

  2. Do nt you beleive it is enough to cry and pledge after 100 years these kind of reaction took us no where. If the guilties and the responsable are not punished it is useless who will punish themdo you really belei e the Justice or the others will doit for us? Wake up Armenian noping people

  3. Do not you beleive it is enough to cry and pledge after 100 years these kind of reaction took us no where. If the guilties and the responsibles are not punished it is useless who will punish them ? Do you really beleive the others will do it for us? Often these others we expect justice from them are even supporters and allies of our ntion murderers. Wake up Armenian illuded naif people

  4. Finally. I hear some voices of desperation? Looking back to our history, anyone, it didn’t matter who they were in those days, that showed and acted on against the Armenian people,whether it was in Tbilisi,Baku or Moscow or anywhere around the world they would never ESCAPE the HANDS of JUSTICE and it didn’t matter how long it took. Recently, the leader of Mosad, openly told the world that most of the ACTORS who bombed the Israeli Cultural Center that so many Jews and Argentinians have died have been eliminated. He said that those “who were ‘involved’ we ‘send them’ to the other side of the world. We have eliminated most of these people, the Terorists. What Mr, Bouldoukian is saying is that “What the hell happened to us, we were the ARCHITECTS of Justice”. Yes you are right. This is a wake up call.
    We are never Ready for any “EVENTUALITY”. In other words, we are SLEEP.

  5. I agree with both statements but you must understand that these people are not trained to fight. They are essentially families that want to live their life in peace. If one of you can organise an Armenian contingent to go and protect them then do so.

  6. Two first comments are “naive”. If the one is going to call others naive at least know the facts, least of all how to spell the word.

    • Mr professor can you tell us the facts we do not know? All the facts are that Armenians are being slaughterred everywhere since 1889 up to now and leaders like you make philosophy and sell words. People like you are responsible of what still happens to us. We should look for the enemies inside our nation before looking for their masters outside. Ohr enemies that adopted cul de sac strategies since long time now
