Situation tense in Yerevan’s center with many arrested

By using force, the police are arresting people who are performing acts of civil disobedience.

The situation is especially tense on Sayat-Nova Street, where Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan has joined the protest.

Many people have been arrested at the Abovyan-Sayat-Nova intersection, including MP Artur Sargsyan and Igor Khatchaturov, the son of Gen. Yuri Khatchaturov.

The number of arrested people was so large, that the doors of the police minibus could hardly close.
