Supporters of the "Tavush for the Motherland" movement are holding a rally in Gegharkunik. The motorcade started from Vardenis Youth Street. The participants of the action will be in the cities of Martuni, Gavar and Sevan.
It should be noted that since this morning streets in Yerevan have been closed at the request of Bagrat Srbazan, leader of the Diocese of Tavush. Since 08:00 they have closed around 20 streets in the capital. As of 11:00, 151 people were detained by the police.
In the footage published by the media, it can be seen how the police arrest many citizens using force, and in some cases knocking them to the ground. During those operations, the camera of one of the operators was damaged, and the journalist of 24news.am lost consciousness during the struggle.
At the rally held yesterday, the reverend called for "total strikes, strikes, to paralyze the entire city and various areas of RA, expressing disagreement with lies and evil" from 8 am.
