At 7:00 p.m. local time, thousands of supporters of the oppositional Armenian National Congress (ANC) started a procession in Yerevan. The demonstrators are passing places where the tragic events took place three years ago.

The Armenian News-NEWS.am correspondent reports that the participants are now marching along Mashtots Avenue. They are chanting anti-government slogans demanding resignation of incumbent president Serzh Sargsyan. The ANC leaders are at the head of the procession.

The demonstrators will lay flowers at the Myasnikyan monument where the rally will be over.

Armenian opposition did not recognize official results of the presidential election held on February 19, 2008. Leader of the opposition Levon Ter-Petrosyan organized rallies in the Liberty Square, in the center of Yerevan, which lasted until March 1. Thousands took to the streets demanding that official election results should be canceled. Ten people, including two law enforcers, became victims of opposition-government confrontation.
