Torchlight procession in commemoration of Genocide victims launched in Yerevan

Traditional torchlight procession in commemoration of Armenian Genocide victims has launched in Yerevan. The participants of ARF Dashnaktsutyun-organized event are marching to Tsitsernakaberd memorial.

Action participants burned a Turkish flag to protest Turkey’s denial of the fact of the Genocide. The burning flag provided fire for torches to be lit.

For the first time, representatives of Armenia’s national minorities participated in the action.
