Assyrian Australian Association joins Anzac Day tribute

The Assyrian Australian Association will proudly participate in an Anzac Day commemorative service at Canley Heights RSL on Friday, 25 April 2025. Speaking with SBS Assyrian, the association’s vice-president, Ashour Nona, emphasised the profound importance of Anzac Day, describing it as a sacred occasion for all communities to unite in remembrance of the soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice during World War One. Nona also paid tribute to the Assyrian soldiers who served alongside British and French forces, as well as the Assyrian Levies — a British-backed military unit established in the aftermath of the war — to safeguard stability and maintain internal security in British-occupied Mesopotamia.
