On April 23/2021 for the occasion of the 106th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, which was take place between 1915-1918, and the martyrdom of one and a half million Armenian martyrs who were later considered saints. And to commemorate the memorial, 106 candles were lit in the Holy Virgin Mary church of Armenian Orthodox  for this sad occasion. The Armenian Church in Zakho begans the preparations for this occasion, which is sad to all the Armenian people,  but due to the recent spread of the Covid-19 epidemic, these activities have been canceled and reduced to lighting candles and praying for the souls of our one and a half million martyrs at home.
