    RUSSIAN, ARMENIAN POLICE HOLD JOINT RIOT DRILL - TV

    Channel One TV, Russia
    Oct 11 2005

    A joint exercise of Russian Interior Ministry and Armenian police
    special-purpose units has been held outside Krasnodar. The two
    countries' law-enforcement agencies practised how to counteract
    mass riots.

    Under the scenario of the exercise, a group of protesters gathered
    outside a government headquarters and demanded the government's
    resignation. The unsanctioned rally then turned into an impromptu
    storming of the building. In 15 minutes' time special-purpose police
    units squeezed the crowd off the square. However several protesters
    managed to get inside the building and take hostages. The second
    phase of the exercise was an operation to free the hostages.

    Over 1,500 people took part in the operation.
