YEREVAN. – The devastation caused by the explosion in the port of Beirut is widespread in Armenian-populated areas, as in the whole of Beirut; buildings have collapsed, churches were damaged, and the building of Haigazian University was damaged, too. Anna Naghdalyan, spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia, noted about this on Facebook.

"At the moment, we have information about three Armenians dead and about 100 injured. But these numbers, unfortunately, can rise because the number of missing people is large.

Currently, various scenarios of providing targeted and first aid to the brotherly people of Lebanon are being considered and assessed together with our partners," Naghdalyan added.
