Yerevan protesters from among relatives of the dead and missing Armenian soldiers have achieved a meeting with the Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan. They said that at the meeting appointed for October 6, they would demand to reveal the exact number of prisoners of war (POWs), and a report on the progress of the investigation.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on November 3, relatives of the dead servicemen went out to a protest action in Yerevan. They blocked traffic in one of the streets and threatened with more radical protests, if Pashinyan failed to appoint the date for the meeting.

Relatives of the dead and missing soldiers have repeatedly held protests, at which they claimed that authorities were hiding the real number of soldiers who were captured as POWs in Azerbaijan. On September 14, relatives of the dead soldiers called on to cancel the celebrations of the Independence Day of Armenia.

In the evening on November 3, relatives of the killed soldiers stopped their protest after Pashinyan agreed to meet them later this week. "We insist on our demands; we have the right to voice them out, so that the relevant structures have to react," the "Panorama.am" has quoted Garik Mkhitaryan, one of the protesters, as saying.
