Led by Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly Ishkhan Saghatelyan, the Resistance movement blocked the intersection of Khorenatsi Street, then the traffic near the Rossia Mall.

"Obviously, there are provocateurs whom the authorities send to the rallies. So don't listen to the provocateurs," Ishkhan Saghatelyan said.

Another column, led by MP Aram Vardevanyan, blocked the highway near Tsitsernakaberd. The demonstrators sat down on the ground.
