/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Field engineers have rendered harmless the Ingush
section of the gas pipeline supplying the Russian gas to Armenia. The
issue of resuming gas supply to Ingushetia, South Ossetia and Armenia
is under consideration.

Mozdok-Tbilisi gas main supplies gas to Armenia via Georgian territory,
but Georgia does not purchase the Russian gas.

Gazprom confirmed Sunday evening that Russia temporarily halted
gas supplies to Armenia after an explosive device was found near a
pipeline, BBC reports.
