Khanasori arshawakhumbe.

On the Khanasor Expedition, launched by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation against the Kurdish Mazrik tribe in retaliation for its role in attacks on the Armenian population in the mid-1890s. In particular, this publication celebrates the Armenian fedayi, the resistance movement responsible for the counter attacks against the Kurdish and Ottoman forces responsible for the Hamidian massacres, a series of brutal ethnic cleansings thought to have killed hundreds of thousands of Armenians.
