The construction of a school and kindergarten will soon kick off in Talish village of Artsakh (Karabakh), Talish community head Vilen Petrosyan told Artsakhpress.

In his words, parallel with this, three private houses will be built. “We don’t renovate the old school, since it is directly at gunpoint from the positions. The new school will be built between the buildings of the rural administrations and ceremony hall. A number of men already live in tent cities and houses. They oversee the work in the village and help around. Their families found shelter outside the village, mainly in Alashan,” Petrosyan said.

According to the community head, the damage incurred as a result of last year April events has already been assessed, the first stage of providing compensation by the Government having already been completed. In his words, the village residents, whose cars were damaged as a result of the adversary’s actions, have already received relevant compensation. In the second stage, compensation for the livestock will be provided.

“Firing is an ordinary phenomenon for Talish residents. We are trying to apply new approaches to ensure security. For instance, all the new buildings will have their shelters,” Petrosyan said, assuring that Talish residents, who currently live in Armenia, wish to return home.
