At 2:21pm on Friday, the Syunik provincial crisis management center of Armenia was informed that a road accident had occurred on the Kapan-Norashenik motorway, as a bus had fallen into a ravine and rescuers’ assistance was needed.
A bus carrying schoolchildren had gone off road—under yet unknown circumstances—on the Kapan-Arajadzor motorway, in the administrative area of Arajadzor village, and fallen upside down into a river from about five meters, shamshyan.com reported.
As a result, there are many injured, including nine teachers working at the school, as well as two maintenance workers and schoolchildren. The number of the latter is being determined.
More than 15 injured people were taken out by the rescuers and taken to waiting ambulances on stretchers.
