Middle East's largest Armenian church reopens in Türkiye

Surp Giragos Armenian Church in southeastern Türkiye has reopened after a seven-year hiatus. Worshippers attended its first Sunday service since 2015, when it was heavily damaged by attacks from the PKK terrorist organisation.

Those so called civilized and tolerant should learn from this

May God bless and protect our Armenian brothers and sisters.

One church restored. That leaves 1, 999 more to rebuild and restore to Armenians after the destruction of 1915/1923.

Barely found this video, loved this! But the reported could have finish the reporting maybe after the badarak(liturgy) was finished or outside not in the middle of worship. I found that a bit funny.
