On August 7 the guest of briefings in the City Hall of Yerevan was
Vrej Gabrielyan, the assistant director of the Rescue Service of
Armenia. He presented the report on the first half of 2006 and dwelled
on the problems. The cases of fire increased compared with the same
period in 2005. 591 fires were reported in the city, including 17 on
lawns. Vrej Gabrielyan says these were not arsons, the citizens were
careless to throw burning cigarettes into the dry grass. The damage
caused by fires grew as well.
The cases of suicides increased, and the survey shows that these are
mainly people aged above 30.
The survey shows that the rate of car accidents grew in the first
half of 2006. Vrej Gabrielyan explains this fact by the increasing
number of cars in the city. In the first half of the current year 13
cases of assault were reported, fortunately, there were no victims.
There were no casualties in 3 cases of explosion either.
The special task force of the City Hall and community councils reported
86 wrecking buildings, mostly in Ajapniak. The assistant head of the
Rescue Service says this year it is planned to reinforce 11 wrecking
buildings, 2 were reinforced, 9 remain.
27 pedestrian subways will be repaired. The cleaning of Lake Yerevanian
started. Vrej Gabrielyan assures that within two years Lake Yerevanian
will be improved so that the citizens may prefer it to Lake Sevan or
the Black Sea.
