Last year, Armenia Fund («Հայաստան» Համահայկական Հիմնադրամ) hosted its annual telethon to benefit the
construction of the Vardenis-Martakert Highway. A year later, there has
been a great deal of progress. Today, November 27, 2014, the goal is to raise the
needed money to get the job done.
It has been a difficult year for Armenia since the 2013 telethon. Under constant attack this summer by Azerbaijan, several
soldiers lost their lives defending the homeland. In August, two homes in Aygepar burned down after being fired
upon by large caliber Azerbaijani artillery. And, just last week, there
was another brazen attack by Azerbaijan on an unarmed Armenian
helicopter running drills in Artsakh – the three soldiers onboard were
killed.
