by a group of environmentalists seeking to halt copper mining in

However, the court reviewed its decision and has now allowed only
enviornmental NGO "Ecodar" to act as plaintiff and present its case.
At 11 am tomorrow, environmental activists are calling on supporters to
join them in a peaceful demonstration in front of the court building
(at Garegin Njdeh 23 in Yerevan), according to a Facebook post by one
of the organizers. Some individuals have also decided to fast on that
day, in the name of a fair and just hearing, reads the post.
