    Yerevan (Yerkir) - The Armenian community of Iran has circulated
    booklets and DVD about demolition of the medieval Armenian cemetery
    in Old Djulfa (Nachijevan) at the hands of Azerbaijan, said Derenik
    Melikian, editor-in-chief of Tehran-based Aliq newspaper. The materials
    were submitted to all diplomatic representations accredited to Iran,
    he said, IA Regnum reports.

    The ancient Armenian cemetery and historical monuments at the
    Nachijevan-Iran border have been systematically destructed during
    past 15 years. In December 2005, the Azeri troops razed the cemetery
    to the ground.

    The process was shot by priests of the Atropaten diocese in Iran. In
    January 2006, the European Parliament passed a resolution condemning
    Azerbaijan's barbarism.

    Now, the territory of the Armenian cemetery was transformed into a
    shooting ground of the Azeri Defense Ministry.
