The Lisbon 5

The Lisbon 5 - Simon, Sarkis, Setrag, Vatche, and Ara

In undying memory of the 5 self-sacrificing Armenian youth

Beirut, Lebanon

The "Lisbon Five"; five heroic Armenian youths set out from Lebanon to Lisbon, with the mission of capturing the turkish ambassador as a hostage. However, when they found themselves surrounded by Lisbon police, in the empty embassy building, from which the ambassador had already escaped, they stood in a circle with a bomb in the middle, holding each otherâ€™s hand and praying, and...BOOM... gave their life away in the name of Armenia, in the name of justice, in the name of the 1.5 million victims.
