Slijedeći kalendar bitnih događaja u Turskoj, za očekivati je da će na isti način 24. aprila u Vijećnici biti obilježeno i sto godina od početka genocida nad Armenima.
The deportation of Armenian intellectuals, sometimes known as Red Sunday was an event during the Armenian Genocide in which leaders of the Armenian community of the Ottoman capital, Constantinople (today Istanbul), and later other locations were arrested and moved to two holding centers near Ankara. The order to do so was given by Minister of the Interior Talaat Pasha on 24 April 1915, the day before the Allied landings at Gallipoli. On that night, the first wave of 235 to 270 Armenian intellectuals of Constantinople were arrested. Eventually, the total number of arrests and deportations amounted to 2,345. With the adoption of the Tehcir Law on 29 May 1915, these detainees were later relocated within the Ottoman Empire; most of them were ultimately killed. A few, such as Vrtanes Papazian and Komitas, were saved through intervention.
