The Armenian sapper who was injured in a landmine explosion in Syria in early March was transported to Moscow. As the defense ministry reported, Major General Artak Davtyan, the Chief of General Staff of the Armenian Armed Forces who is paying working visit to Moscow,  visited the sapper at the hospital.

As reported earlier, the de-miner who dispatched to Syria as part of the Armenian humanitarian mission, suffered injuries in the right foot after a booby trap landmine with a plastic back exploded while he was carrying out his duties.

He was immediately hospitalized and underwent a surgery. The sapper has no life-threatening complications. The de-mining activities of the Armenian mission continue.
