Wounded rebels undergo surgeries in Yerevan

Physicians express no concern over the health condition of Ashot Petrosyan and Ovanes Arutyunyan, supporters of the "Constituent Parliament", wounded today by the police.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that Ashot Petrosyan and Ovanes Arutyunyan, two of the supporters of the "Constituent Parliament", who have been holding the building of the police regiment since July 17, are wounded by the police.

Nikol Pashinyan, an independent MP, has made an attempt to visit the wounded activists; however, he failed because of the prohibition of the law enforcers. This was written by Nikol Pashinyan himself on his page on Facebook.

The medical centre and the resuscitation ward, where the victims stay, are being watched by the law enforcers, the "Sputnik-Armenia" reports.

According to the Armenian police, the rebels burned the police cars parked in the street adjacent to the building of the police regiment. "In total, four police cars were burned," a policeman reported.
