    Armenia

    At 8:30 p.m. local time, thousands of supporters of the opposition
    Armenian National Congress (ANC) started a procession in the center
    of Yerevan. The NEWS.am correspondent working at the scene reports
    that the demonstrators demand the President's resignation and early
    elections, chanting anti-government slogans. The procession is moving
    along Mashtots Avenue.

    The demonstrators intend to go along Amiryan St. as far as Republic
    Square. The procession will traditionally be finished on North Avenue.

    The procession is led by young people with uniforms on, a symbol of
    political prisoners in Armenia.

    The ANC Chairman, Armenia's first president Levon Ter-Petrosyan,
    as well as the leaders of the other opposition political forces,
    is at the head of the procession.
