A landslide in the Georgian mountainous region of Kazbek has damaged
a major Russian pipeline that supplies Armenia with gas.
According to ITAR TASS news agency the supply of the Russian gas to
Armenia will temporarily be stopped.
Georgian Gas and Oil Corporation told the agency that currently the
pipeline is being repaired, adding that it would take 2-3 days to
finish the repair works.
It is yet not known whether the Armenian consumers will be affected by
a gas shortage in their homes. But usually the gas supply in Armenia
is secured by gas supplies held in an underground gas storage located
in Abovyan, an industrial town near the capital city of Yerevan.
