Thousands of Armenians, Jews and other supporters will gather in New York’s Times Square on April 22, to commemorate the first genocide of the 20th century, the Armenian Genocide as well as the Holocaust.

The event will pay tribute to the almost two million Armenians who were massacred by the Young Turk Government of the Ottoman Empire and to the six million Jews who were annihilated by the Nazi regime during World War II, Gazzette reported.
