    Today Armenia marks the day of missing freedom fighters. About 80
    Armenian soldiers died on this day 20 years ago. They were considered
    missing up until 2008.

    Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan, accompanied by the
    commandership of the Ministry of Defense and the armed forces,
    representatives of the Public Council and NGOs and veterans of the
    Arstakh war, visited Yerablur Pantheon today and laid flowers at the
    memorial to the missing persons, the heroes perished in the Arsakh
    liberation struggle, the graves of Vazgen Sargsyan and Andranik.

    At an event held at the Chamber Music Hall 50 missing soldiers were
    posthumously awarded Medals for Courage.
