A number of citizens have protested in front of the Armenian Embassy in Russia to support their compatriots in Armenia. They entered the embassy's area. The embassy staff handed them over to Russian law enforcement officers. Harutyun Mkrtchyan, a participant of the protest action, informs on his Facebook page that he and his two friends were taken to the court and, then brought back to the police. "Georgi, Ashot, and I return to the police station. The reason for this is not clear yet. For six to seven hours we are deprived of freedom," he says.
