Militant organization

This article is about the militant organization active in 1982. For the Armenian division of the Soviet Red Army, see Armenian Red Army.

The Red Armenian Army (RAA), also known as the Armenian Red Army, was a small militant organization, which organized a single unsuccessful attack against the Turkish Consul General, Kemalettin Demirer, on 1 July 1982 in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The group used a gun in the assassination attempt.[1]

The Armenian Red Army has not claimed any attacks in over two decades and is presumed to be disbanded and inactive.[2]
