Magen David or Davti Vahan (Armenian: Դավթի վահան, Shield of David)[1] is the only Jewish newspaper in Armenia. It is published monthly by the Yerevan-based non-governmental organization Jewish Community of Armenia.

  1. ^ Magen David is the Hebrew name of the Star of David. A Cyrillic transliteration of this Hebrew expression, Маген Давид, is used as the name of the newspaper in Russian, the language of most of its contents. The Armenian name is a translation rather than a transliteration: Դավթի վահան Davti vahan, lit. 'David's shield'.
