IRAQ-KURDS-ARMENIA-GENOCIDE

The forget-me-not flower is displayed at the Umm al-Maouna Catholic Church in Arbil on April 24, 2015, during a ceremony held by the Armenian community in the autonomous Kurdish region of northern Iraq to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the mass killings of Armenians under the Ottoman Empire in 1915. Armenians say up to 1.5 million of their kin were killed between 1915 and 1917 as the Ottoman Empire was falling apart, and have long sought to win international recognition of the massacres as genocide, but Turkey rejects the claims, arguing that 300,000 to 500,000 Armenians and as many Turks died in civil strife when Armenians rose up against their Ottoman rulers and sided with invading Russian troops.
