Armenian monuments in Syria have not been damaged yet, Samvel
Karapetyan, Head of the Research on Armenian Architecture (RAA) NGO,
told ArmInfo.
He said that there are many Armenian cultural and historical monuments
in Syria, especially in Aleppo and in the Kesab region populated
by Armenians.
“Kesab is an integral part of the historical Cilicia. Armenians have
settled there centuries ago, therefore there are many Armenian cultural
and historical centers there. However, Arabs began to resettle in
Kesab,” Karapetyan said.
