On October 7, the Coordination Council of Armenian Organizations in France (CCAF) will hold a mass demonstration outside the country’s National Assembly building.  

They will protest the recent destruction of the Holy Martyrs Armenian Church in Deir ez-Zor, Syria, by the Islamic State, reported the French-Armenian Nouvelles d’Arménie magazine.

“By blowing up Deir ez-Zor’s Armenian monument, the only one in those areas where the Armenian Genocide was carried out, the Jihadist forces operating in Syria have crossed the last limit of criminal madness. 

“We need to put an end to this dizzy spiral of crime and the accompanying international hypocrisy,” the CCAF’s respective statement specifically reads.
