Today is the day some Armenians claim as 'the commemoration day of the genocide of 1.5 million Armenians during 1915-23.' The date has been chosen deliberately. On the night of April 24, 1915 the Ottoman government arrested 200 leaders of the Armenian community in Istanbul. They and some others were sent to Anatolian prisons. According to the Armenian scholars' claim, after that imprisonment the Ottoman government started to implement its plans to liquidate Armenians all over Turkey."
