The first statement is best:
"Some Armenians joined the Allies in World War I due to their location, leading the Turkish government to see them as enemies."
Why: At the time some Armenian groups and individuals did cooperate with or fight alongside Russian forces on the eastern front, and the Ottoman government used alleged Armenian collaboration with the Allies as a justification for mass deportations and killings. The other options contain factual errors (Anatolia and Asia Minor are the same region; Armenians were predominantly Christian, not Muslim) and so do not accurately reflect the historical context.
