The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant has destroyed the Armenian
Genocide memorial church in Deir ez-Zor, Syria’s 6th-largest city,
according to Armenian media reports.
Armenian Foreign Minister Eduard Nalbandyan called the act a “horrific
barbarity.”
Ottoman Turkish officials forced many Armenians to march through the
desert to Deir ez-Zor during the 1915 genocide.
