Armenia’s Ministry of Emergency Situations has denied the rumors circulating on the web claiming that a strong earthquake is expected on the territory of Armenia, and namely Yerevan.

“The National Survey for Seismic Protection officially refutes the information,” the Emergency Ministry said, urging to follow only the official information.

A 4.7 magnitude earthquake rattled Armenia on Saturday. The quake hit 8 km southwest of capital Yerevan at 15:39 local time. No casualties were reported. 

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
