Russian authorities have suspended the sale of a batch of Armenian “Jermuk” carbonated mineral water in both offline and online stores while inspections are carried out. According to the Russian RBC media outlet, around 338,000 bottles are affected.

The decision was made following a warning from Russia’s consumer safety watchdog (Rospotrebnadzor), which cited the need to prevent possible risks to consumers’ health and safety. The agency pointed to alleged “violations of mandatory requirements” as the reason for the suspension.

The ban applies to products manufactured between February 17, 2026, and March 2026.

Armenpress has reached out to Jermuk Group for comment.
