ArmInfo. The Armenian men’s chess team won the sixth consecutive victory at the World Chess Olympiad, becoming the sole leader of the tournament. The  International Chess Federation reports on its microblog in Twitter.

“Despite the amazing effort of Gukesh, India B surrenders 1?-2? to  Armenia.  3-time Olympic champions, Armenians were stronger on the  lower boards. GMs Ter-Sahakyan and Hovhannisyan won their games.  Going into a rest day, they are the sole leaders with perfect 12  match points!” The World Chess Olympiad takes place in Channai, India  from July 28 to August 10. –

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
