GYUMRI, DECEMBER 5, ARMENPRESS: The municipality of the northwestern
town of Gyumri in Shirak province has registered over 1,000 people
eligible to a 10,000 Dram assistance of the city hall to survive
harsh winter months this region is famous for.
In the past the authorities provided these families, which still
live in so-called domiks, temporary dwellings, 18 years after the
destructive earthquake of December 7, 1988, with wood.
However, only part of such families can hope for 10,000 drams,
precisely, families with three and more children and those made up
of old-age pensioners, lonely senior citizens and disabled. The city
hall has been providing this assistance for six consecutive years.
