Press Secretary of the Armenian community in Aleppo, told ArmInfo.
He said troops of volunteers have been formed in Aleppo and among
them there are several Armenians. Two of them were killed in today's
military actions.
"Those Armenians independently adopted the decision to fight, but
generally the Armenian community in Aleppo keeps neutral stance on
the processes in the country," Reisyan explained.
He said that there is currently relative peace in Aleppo.
"Single shots are heard from time to time, but the military actions
continuing all the night stopped," Reisyan said and added that the
districts populated with Armenians has not been damaged seriously.
However, people are scared of going out in the streets.
Currently all the central districts in Aleppo are under control of
the government troops. As for the Consulate of Armenia, it functions
in a safer place. There is no need for evacuation of Armenians from
Aleppo yet, he said.
