Azerbaijan
Yerevan-APA. Officials have reported that eight people are dead as
a result of yesterday's battles in Yerevan.
The aftermath of a day of violence is evident in Sunday's spring sun in
Yerevan as the scene of violent confrontation between law enforcement
and thousands of discontent citizens reveals itself in the aftermath.
On the day after, the wreckage has been reduced to acres of trash that
includes burned vehicles, the discarded makeshift weapons of some,
and the occasional blood spots that show their effect.
An imposed quiet has come to the capital, brought by President
Robert Kocharyan's declared State of Emergency and by his release
of oppositionist leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan who, early this morning
implored his supporters to go back to their homes and end the conflict.
As conditions of the emergency, media are being told to observe a
blackout except for release of official information.
