YEREVAN. – A refugee status has been granted to all members of the Tovmassian family, which had moved from Syria to Armenia.
Sosi Tovmassian told about the aforementioned to Armenian News-NEWS.am. She added, however, that they now need to rent a home.
“When we find a home, we will resolve the matter of sending the children to school,” said Tovmassian. “We want the school to be close to the house.”
With the support of General Vicar of the Armenian Patriarchate of Constantinople, Archbishop Aram Ateşyan, the seventeen-member—including eleven children—Tovmassian family, which had fled from Kobani city in Syria to Turkey, was relocated to Armenia on September 2. The family is temporarily living in a social home in capital city Yerevan.
