Najarian moved to Armenia, and then Artsakh after the Beirut blast.

After the end of the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan, Maral was captured by Azerbaijan, with next to minimal information about her for months. She is reportedly back home in Beirut.
Additional info from Maral Najarian:

Raffy Demirjian (chancellor, Armenian Prelacy + ARF Fanar/Leylavan committee) has posted the following on FB.

“Maral is free and in a relatively good and stable condition. That’s all for now. Good news to all family members & relatives.”
Additional photos emerging. Sources unknown.
