STEPANAKERT, NKR (A.W.)—The youth of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF) of the Nagorno-Karabagh Republic (NKR/Artsakh) led a torch-lit procession in the capital of Stepanakert on the night of April 23. Crowds filled the city center, chanting, “The Armenian soldier stopped a new genocide,” “We demand,” and “Shame on Turkey,” and singing patriotic songs, reported Armenia’s Yerkir news service.
Participants marched from the city’s ARF Nikol Duman Center to Stepanakert’s Armenian Genocide Monument, where they observed a moment of silence in memory of the victims of the genocide and of the large-scale military aggression by Azerbaijani forces on April 2-5.
During the event, the participants called for both Turkey and Azerbaijan to be held responsible by the international community for their crimes.
