Conscript of Armenia's Ijevan military unit dies in hospital
Aravot.am reports that a conscript soldier has died at a military unit in Ijevan.
The incident occurred several days ago, but the official website of the Armenian Defense Ministry has yet to issue a statement on the circumstances in which Stepan Stepanyan, a native of the village of Garni, died.
When contacted by Epress.am, spokesperson of the Defense Ministry Artsrun Hovhannisyan said the cause of Stepanyan’s death has not yet been established: “The soldier had just come back from a leave. He was taken to a hospital on the same day, where he died.”
Garni village head Aharon Sahakyan told Aravot.am that the soldier was buried 4-5 days ago. The cause of death, he added, will be known in 40 days, when autopsy results are available.
