A 30-meter-high Armenian flag was raised in the border village of Shurnukh in Syunik Province in a solemn ceremony on Sunday, the Goris Municipality reported.

Shurnukh is just a few meters away from the Azerbaijani military positions.

“The enemy, stationed just a few meters away from Shurnukh, must constantly feel that we are not only united with residents of our border settlements, but also we will continue to improve our settlements,” the municipality said.

The highest flag in Armenia was first placed in Kapan, before being raised in Shurnukh.
