Germany: Bells ringing in Erfurt and Jena commemorate the Armenian genocide

On Friday at noon on the dot the bells ring in the St. Severi church in Erfurt and in the city church St. Michael in Jena. The ringing is to commemorate the victims of the genocide of the Armenians in the Ottoman Empire in 1915. Andranik Vardanyan, chairman of the Armenian community in Thuringia, informed about this. “Every year on April 24, Armenians gather worldwide to commemorate the genocide and demand justice as Turkey, as the legal successor of the Ottoman Empire, continues to deny the genocide to this day,” Andranik Vardanyan said.
