February 13 2013
In Movses, groups of emergency aid are being formed. On February 13,
a regular meeting of the local council took place in the village of
Movses, region of Tavush. Ararat Avalyan, the village headman of
Movses, said that he put forward a proposal during that meeting to
form 2 groups of first aid. Every group will consist of 5-6 people;
they will render assistance in case of emergencies - fires, evacuation
etc. He said that they had allotted a room in the village
administration building for those groups to be on duty, currently the
plan of their activities was being drawn up. A. Avalyan said that
thanks to the charity of Vazgen Vanesyan, a fellow villager living in
Russia, the village had a fire engine. The village headman informed
that on the night of February 13, it was relatively peaceful, but the
roofs of 15 houses in the village, windows of houses had been damaged
by the shots fired before that. A bullet penetrated the house of one
of the villagers and damaged the refrigerator. The village headman of
Nerkin Karmiraghbyur, Manvel Kamendatyan, informed that on the night
of February 13, till 12:30 p.m., the Azeris were continuously shooting
at the village. `The whole village is worried; they don't sleep at
night,' the village headman said, adding that the roofs of houses had
been damaged by the shooting. In his words, there is a kindergarten
and a school in Nerkin Karmiraghbyur; the school is 300-400m away from
the border; the Azerbaijani military use new, more accurate weapons.
Andranik Aydinyan, the village headman of Aygepar, said that on the
night of February 13, the village was under heavy fire. `They were
shooting from roughly 15 places; because of those bullets, the sky
above the village was illuminated as if by fireworks, as if it was the
night of the New Year. Then it started to rain, and the shooting
ceased,' A. Aydinayn said. In his words, the shooting was so intense
that they couldn't raise their heads to see, where they were shooting
from. On the night of February 13, the window of Andranik Hovakimyan,
a resident of Aygepan, was broken because of the shooting, and that
family was compelled to spend the night in someone else's house. A.
Aydinyan said that the school and the kindergarten of Ayegpar were
300m away from the border. Voskan SARGSYAN
