A group of citizens is carrying out a rally. They started a car march from Republic Square to Lachin Corridor.

According to one of the participants of the action, Samvel Movsisyan, they are going to Goris to visit, give gifts and encourage the children who remained in Armenia due to the closure of the Lachin corridor.

Then, according to him, they will go to the Lachin Corridor and try to negotiate first with the Armenian police and then with the Russian peacekeepers. "We have to do our best. We cannot sit here and wait for something to happen."

Since December 12, Azerbaijan has closed the Lachin Corridor connecting Artsakh to Armenia, as a result of which 120.000 residents of Artsakh, including 30,000 children, have been besieged. 1100 civilians, including 270 minors, cannot return from Armenia to Artsakh.

Because of the blockade, it is not possible to deliver 400 tons of food and medicine from Armenia to Artsakh every day, as a result of which there is a shortage of food and medicine.

350 patients cannot receive treatment in Armenia. 17 patients, including children, are in the intensive care unit. During these days, two Armenians and 4 foreigners in need of emergency medical care were transferred to Armenia only through the mediation of the Red Cross, and one of the patients in Artsakh who needed medical care and was in critical condition died.
