YEREVAN, May 11. /ARKA/. Provision of natural gas in Armenia is
rehabilitated on May 11 at 4.00 am, informed press-service of
"Armrosgasprom" on Tuesday.
Provision of Russian gas to Armenia was temporarily terminated on
April 28 due to the damage of highway gas-pipeline in the result of
land-slide in the section Kobi-Gudauri in one of mountainous regions
of North Caucasus.
Provision of gas was prolonged due to new damages in the gas-pipeline
in Georgia. Tamar Shoshiashvili, Head of PR Department of Georgian
Oil & Gas Corporation said that on May 4 20-ton clod was fallen down
from the rock near Zhinval Hydro-Power Station and on May 6 land-slide

irregularities in the industrial usage of gas, as well as gas provision
of the most important gas consumers of Armenia. In case hydro-power
