The Ministry of Defense reports that in 2005 89 servicemen dies in
Armenia. On May 24 Avetik Ishkanyan, the chair of the Helsinki
Committee of Armenia, reported these data during the debate on the
annual report of Human Rights Watch. `47 were sergeants, 24 officers,
5 warrant officers and 13 contractors,’ said Avetik Ishkanyan. He
mentioned that 15 were killed at the Armenian-Azerbaijani front line.
According to Ishkanyan, the suggestion that servicemen in the Armenian
army die because of relations that breech the army regulations is
true.
