Night passes comparatively peaceful in Armenian district of Syria’s Aleppo

11:50 • 08.08.12



Electricity supply in Armenia’s districts of Syrian Aleppo has been cut off but the night as compared with the previous one, passed peacefully.

 

Speaking to Tert.am spokesperson for the Berio Diocese of the Armenian Church Zhirayr Reyisian said occasional shooting sounds were heard but no major incidents have been reported.

 

“The electricity was off and it was difficult to clear out from where the shooting sounds come from but they seemed to be far from our districts,” he said.

 

As of the moment the electricity supply has not been restored yet.

 

Two Armenians were killed, one injured on August 7 during the clashes with the rebels in the Armenian-populated district.
