Armenian Genocide memorial Church (Holy Martyrs), Deir ez-Zor.The church was severely damaged by al-Nusra group in 2014. [x]The church is dedicated to the one and a half million Armenians slaughtered by the Turks during the 1915 genocide. All of the church archives, dating back to 1841 and containing thousands of documents on the Armenian Holocaust, were burned to ashes, while the bones of hundreds of genocide victims, packed into the church’s crypt in memory of the mass killings 99 years ago, were thrown into the street beside the ruins. -- source link
