Turkey’s Department for Emergency Situations has created a refugee camp for residents of Kobane having escaped from the ISIS and having settled in the Turkish Suruch residence in the exact same place where thousands of Armenians were once slaughtered, writes armeniangenocide100.org.

According to the Turkish T24 website, residents of Suruch, Bozan Demir and Ibrahim Halil Kaya, who are of Armenian descent, as well as Hakki Frat of Kurdish descent claim that the Turkish Department for Emergency Situations has set up a refugee camp on the road to Urfa, the exact same place where 20,000 Armenians exiled from Erzrum, Erznka, Manazkert, Svas and Mush were slaughtered during the massacres organized by Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II in 1895.

They mentioned that thousands of their compatriots were killed at that camp and that the survivors went to Kobane.

Ibrahim Halil Kaya mentioned that there was a lot of injustice against the Armenians during the years of the Ottoman Empire. “Our parents have told us that Armenians were displaced from their homes and exiled in 1895 and that those who survived the hunger, thirst and massacres became scattered across the globe. Just like Armenian women, the women of Kobane are also in despair. This territory is full of their bones,” he said.

The camp in Suruch is the largest camp for Syrian refugees in Turkey. It is a shelter for nearly 35,000 refugees.
