What had happened?
Camp Armen in Tuzla, once hosted orphan Armenian children, started the day with a demolishment attempt on May 6.
Even though volunteers who rushed into Camp Armen upon hearing the demolishment managed to halt the destruction, some parts of the building were demolished.
Following the watch and resistance that began upon this incident, title owner of the land on where the building is situated, Fatih Ulusoy, declared on May 23 that he will donate the land to Gedikpaşa Armenian Protestant Church Foundation. However, the land wasn't donated. (ÇT/TK)
