To Kashatagh and Back: War Leaves Khachatryan Family with Little
The Khachatryan family moved from the Nor Kyanq village in Armenia’s Shirak Province to the village of Mush village in Artsakh’s Kashatagh District in 1998.
The recent Karabakh war forced them to return to Armenia, this time to the village of Marmarashen in the Ararat Province. They live on a temporarily basis in the houses of their relatives.
Sirush Khachatryan, 35, was thirteen when she moved to Kashatagh. Her parents, Aramayis and Ashkhen Khachatryan, have five children. Three are now raising children of their own.
Sirush Khachatryan left the village of Mush with her three children on October 5.
