Past two months have been very difficult for Armenia. One of the obvious reasons - COVID lockdown. As in the rest of the world, Armenia was in total lockdown, we had a lot of cases, deaths and everyone was affacted by this - both children and their parents.
Little we knew, there was another catastrophy awaiting us - war.
At the end of September the country of Azerbaijan, one of our neighbour countries and long-time rival attaced Artsakh (Karabakh) - teretory that has been run by ethnic armenians for decades.
This was immensly devastating for all of the armenians, also for our organisation, as one of our organisation members, a 20 years old young man, has died in this war. He was a volonter in our organisation since he was 14. He used to help us with our projects, supporting us in any organisational deads. This bright young man was a true hero, and we will never forget his sacrifise.
Due to this war the COVID-19 cases have been increasing. The schools are shut down and so as our organisation. It is a dificult time for our nation, we are praying and hoping to go back to normality as soon as possible.
