Armenian police are apprehending citizens who were holding a protest in front of the building of the Ministry of Health.

The situation escalated after the protesters threw polyethylene bags at the building.

The protesters demand the resignation of acting Minister of Health Anahit Avanesyan. According to them, Avanesyan must resign, if she has a little human value. The protest comes after citizens found out that the bodies and remains of deceased servicemen are kept in basements.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
