Armenian citizens are gathering at the Russian Embassy in Yerevan to
express their condolences at the death of victims in the Moscow blast.

A spokeswoman to the Russian Embassy Eugenia Chechelian said that
since the early morning people, increasing up to nearly 3-4 thousands,
are gathering at the Embassy, bringing flowers and candles. Eugenia
Chechelian said that as the mourning day is declared only in Moscow,
this is not a nationwide mourning day and that is why Armenia’s
officials hasn’t yet paid a visit to the Embassy.

It’s worth mentioning that Armenian government, represented by county’s
President, Prime Minister, and Speaker have already sent a condolence
messages to their Russian counterparts.

According to last reports by Aysor’s correspondent, among gathered
people are activists of ‘Armenian Eagles Movement’ and ‘Miasin Youth
Foundation’. Activists are carrying posters reading "We are against
terrorism", "Armenia mourns with you", "We say no to violence."
