A school in Syria’s Aleppo will be named after Krikor Ashnakelian, a fallen Armenian soldier of the Syrian army, upon the order of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

Syria’s education minister has already launched the process of naming the school in honor of the fallen hero, Aleppo-Armenian Zareh Sisserian said on Facebook.

She has also posted a photo, which shows the Syrian leader has paid a visit to Ashnakelian’s family.
