    YEREVAN, JULY 30, ARMENPRESS: In the Armenian districts of Aleppo
    the situation during the recent period has been quiet and no new
    incidents have occurred. This was reported to Armenpress by the
    Press Secretary of the National Primacy of Aleppo Zhirayr Reyisyan:
    "In general no fights occur in our districts. Short term collisions
    take place in Aleppo but they are far from the Armenian districts".

    Concerning the release of the two kidnapped teenagers on the
    Turkish-Syrian border, the Press Secretary of the National Primacy
    of Aleppo said that he had no clear information about it. "I knew
    that they should have been released and returned to Syria today,
    but for now I do not know if they have already returned or not", -
    said Zhirayr Reyisyan.

    During the last week the Syrian Armenians suffered considerable
    losses: in the result of the bus attack an Armenian woman was killed,
    17 people were wounded. A child was wounded by a random bullet and
    on July 26 four Armenian men were kidnapped by the militants and
    Armenian women were directed to a pub in a Turkish province instead
    of coming to Yerevan. On July 28 in the morning a small bus left from
    Aleppo to Turkey, in which there were 3 Armenian families - 7 women
    and 2 teenagers. On the Turkish border the bus was made to stop. The
    militants kidnapped the 14 and 12-year-old children and released the
    women, who are in Turkey now. Recently we got information that the
    teenagers were released and left for Syria.

    By the UN data, during the two-year bloodshed in Syria by April 2013
    more than 100 thousands of people have fallen victims. Currently 4,5
    million refugees live in Syria and 1,5 million - in the neighboring
    countries. Several tens of Armenians have been killed in the result of
    the collisions. Notwithstanding that difficult situation, many Syrian
    Armenians continue leaving in Syria. The governmental forces try to
    liberate Aleppo from the opposition. Every day heated collisions
    and bombings are taking place, causing sufferings of the peaceful
    population, the Armenians as well.
