Armenian army officer, Major Sargis Stepanyan, together with his fellow servicemen, on Monday took part in the inauguration of an Armenian khachkar (cross-stone) in the yard of Saint Sarkis Church in Noyemberyan community of Armenia’s Tavush Province.

The monument made by 12-14-year-old children of Arar Armenian Art Center pays tribute to fallen solders of the Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) Liberation War.

“I am excited and proud…we are deeply grateful to Arsen Grigoryan, the head of the art center, for such an important, bright and invaluable initiative aimed at preservation of national values and centuries-old history,” Stepanyan said in a Facebook post.
