Today on Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day we pray for the 1.5 million Armenians and hundreds of thousands of Assyrians, Greeks, and other Christians who were systematically slaughtered by the Ottoman Empire between 1915 and 1923.

Today, April 24, marks the 109th anniversary of the #ArmenianGenocide during which 1.5 million Armenians were systematically exterminated by the Turkish Ottoman Empire.

To this day, Turkey denies the genocide of not only Armenians, but also Greeks and Assyrians.

Ημέρα μνήμης σήμερα, 109 χρόνια από την έναρξη της Γενοκτονίας των Αρμενίων. Αποτίουμε φόρο τιμής στα θύματα και διατηρούμε τη μνήμη ζωντανή. Η χώρα μας στέκεται και θα στέκεται πάντα απέναντι σε κάθε πράξη που υποκινεί διακρίσεις και βία σε βάρος συνανθρώπων μας.

Great news!
