Report
From a German Missionary on a Massacre of Armenians in 1915
"The
women, children, and straggling elderly were marched for
miles on the Armenian plateau. They had to cross mountain
passes and ravines on foot. Bands of Special Organization
Units, organized by the government, killed many Armenians
in attacks on the convoys. During the attacks women and
children were often kidnapped and later sold to Turkish
families as slaves. They routinely raped women and girls
and mutilated their bodies."
