    Fires claim human lives in Armenia

    Fires causing human losses hit several regions of Armenia earlier on Wednesday.

    According to the Emergency Ministry's official website, the first
    incident was reported in the Chambarak village (Gegharkunik region) at
    around 3:00 am local time. The firefighting teams which went to the
    scene pulled out the dead body of Roza Khachatryan (about 85)

    Tert.am has learned that the deceased was a lonely woman with no
    children. Neighbors do not know what exactly could have caused the
    fire as they say Khachatryan did not even heat the house properly.

    The other incident was reported from the second largest city of Gyumri
    at 10:25 am local time. Firefighters went to the scene to find a shack
    on fire. The blaze was extinguished 30 minutes later. F. Sargsyan, 78,
    was found dead inside.
    The Ministry further reports that another fire alarm was received from
    teh Gandzakar village (Tavush region) 5:21 am local time. Firefighters
    which departed for the scent later found a house roof ablaze. It took
    them about two hours to extinguish the fire. The roof with the house's
    kitchen had completely burnt down.
