The bomb threat at Megamall Armenia was a false alarm, as reported the news service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Armenia.

Armenian ministry of emergency situations received Thursday a signal on bomb threat in the Megamall Armenia shopping center. 

According to the ministry's press service, 1,800 people have been evacuated.

The threat came a day after the false bomb alert at the Blue Mosque in Yerevan as well as a number of other false bomb threats in Yerevan malls earlier this month.
