YEREVAN. – The Armenian sapper who was injured in a landmine accident on March 7, and while carrying out humanitarian mission in Syria, is in stable condition, and his medical treatment continues at a hospital.

Nazeli Elbakyan, public relations officer at the Armenian Center for Humanitarian Demining and Expertise, told the above-said to Armenian News-NEWS.am.

She added, however, that it is not yet known when this sapper will be transferred back to Armenia.

In Elbakyan’s words, this sapper was carrying out humanitarian mission in Syria since February 8.

He is part of the 83-member team—comprising deminers, doctors, and their security professionals—that traveled from Armenia to Syria on February 8, to provide humanitarian and professional assistance to the Syrian people.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
