    YEREVAN, AUGUST 11, ARMENPRESS: Armenian Foreign Ministry said today
    the embassy and the consulate in Georgia are helping all Armenian
    citizens wishing to travel home. It told Armenpress that by 6 pm
    August 10 no Armenian citizen in Georgia was reported to have suffered.

    It said also Armenian authorities are helping hundreds of foreign
    nationals caught up in the Russia-Georgia conflict, to move to
    Armenia. About 130 of the 200 Italian nationals known to be in Georgia
    left by bus Sunday to travel to the Armenian capital Yerevan. Poland's
    Foreign Ministry said it had sent a government plane to Yerevan to
    collect around 180 evacuees waiting there.

    Armenia decided not to charge visa fees from foreigners fleeing Georgia
    who get them at the border. They are exempted also from transit fees
    at Yerevan's Zvartnots airport.

    The ministry's press division said Armenian border and customs services
    were told to show the biggest possible assistance to foreign nationals
    and facilitate their crossing into Armenia.
