Armenia – Aug 22 2022

The basements of schools and kindergartens should be cleaned of unnecessary and obsolete property, Hrachya Sargsyan, the mayor of the Armenian capital, said during a working meeting at Yerevan City Hall today.

According to the mayor, basements must be re-equipped into bomb shelters. The progress report, however, did not satisfy Sargsyan. In the mayor's opinion, the responsible bodies didn't follow up on the assigned task.

"You didn't follow up on anything, and that's why nothing was done. This problem came to light back during the war. Back then we were looking for bomb shelters and hiding places. In the end, it turned out that the property from the 1970s, which turned out to be unusable, had never been written off. For some reason they decided to put this property in basements," complained Sargsyan and called for the problem to be solved as soon as possible.
