Parents and relatives of the servicemen deceased in April War today have visited Yerablur Military Pantheon. They laid flowers at the graves of their sons and burnt incense in their memory. Many political figures, officials, as well as fellow servicemen of the deceased soldiers came to share the grief of the relative of the deceased soldiers and pay tribute in their memory. Clergymen of the Armenian Apostolic Church served requiem mass. In the interview with “A1+” relative of Bagrat Aleksanyan, soldier killed during April War, said that Bagrat’s parents were proud of him and he was meaning of their life, but now they are proud of Bagrat’s heroic grave. “God willing there be no wars in Armenia, but if there are, let these young boys not see front line, experienced servicemen go to war. We don’t want heroes, we wanted our Bagrat return to his home safe and sound,” she said. The angry woman said that 110 day were left before the demobilization of their son and it is the state’s mistake that servicemen, who are about to be demobilized, are taken to the front line. The RA former Minister of Defense Seyran Ohanyan said that paying tribute in the memory of the deceased soldiers in Yerablur is the duty of every citizen, “Today we should do our best to establish long lasting guarantees for peace, but we are to deal with such neighbors, that it is difficult to reach it fast,” said Seyran Ohanyan.
