The police started to use force to apprehend protesters, including women and the elderly, from in front of the main building of the government of Armenia. No justification was provided by the police.

Earlier, several opposition MPs tried to enter this building, but they were allowed by police, causing a scuffle between the police and the participants of the opposition rally outside this government building.

As Armenian News-NEWS.am reported earlier, Security Council secretary Armen Grigoryan announced Wednesday that the Azerbaijani side had informed the Armenian side that it would set up customs checkpoints on the Goris-Kapan motorway of Armenia.
