Pokr Masrik (Armenian: Փոքր Մասրիկ) is a village in the Vardenis Municipality of the Gegharkunik Province of Armenia. Azerbaijanis lived in the village prior to their exodus from Armenia after the outbreak of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. From 1988 and onward, Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan settled in the village.[2] The village is located close to Mets Masrik (lit. 'Big Masrik').
History[edit]
The village has a 12th-century church.
