BEIRUT. – Due to the ongoing military operations in Syria, around
5,000 Syrian Armenians have moved to Lebanon, Editor-in-Chief Shahan
Kandaharian of Lebanon’s Aztag Armenian daily told Armenian
News-NEWS.am.

In his words, some Syrian Armenians moved in with their relatives in
Lebanon, others have their own home in the country, whereas the
remaining Syrian Armenians are living on rent. And the Armenian
charitable organizations are helping out to those who do not have such
opportunities.

Kandaharian noted that some Syrian Armenians have also found jobs in
Lebanon.

In addition, the Syrian-Armenian children are going to
Lebanese-Armenian schools, albeit there are some differences between
the school curricula of Syria and Lebanon.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
