YEREVAN, JULY 10, ARMENPRESS. The Yerevan metro will restore its operation when the problem with power supply is solved, spokesperson of the Yerevan Mayor Hakob Karapetyan told Armenpress.

“The subway will restore its operation after the problems linked with the electricity supply are solved. There are still problems with the power supply at the moment”, he said.

The electricity supply has been suspended along the entire length of the subway due to power outage. In some parts the trains were left in the tunnels. Then, the power was partially restored, the trains approached the stations and all passengers were evacuated. The situation is under control.
