Waste From Akhtala River Ends Up in Debed

Member of the SOS Alaverd initiative Oleg Dulgaryan on his Facebook page warns about the pollution of the Akhtala River which flows into the Debed River. He notes that the stream is full of waste.

Ruben Shukhyan comment:

Poison from mines flows into the Debed River, and this scene is actually common in Armenia for places near mines.

Thus, for decades, the ecology of our country was poisoned, and criminal money was invested in the pockets of high-ranking officials.
