Rivers carry dead bodies, while search continues for 2-year-old Tigran in Marmarik

Since May 4, Marmarik has been in turmoil.

For nine days, search has been conducted for two-year-old Tigran in nearby villages, under bushes and trees—but he is nowhere to be found.

The banks of Marmarik have become the permanent address for Tigran’s relatives. They are not leaving the rescuers. Tigran’s uncle, Arsen Ghazaryan, recalls that he was the first to hear the news of Tigran’s birth. They were living their usual daily routine until May 4.

They are upset about the empty talk circulating on social media and with those who spread rumors. They are rubbing salt into the wound—can they stay silent?
