"We provided the first aid, and they were transported to Berd," the website "Tert.am" quotes today an agent of the Aigedzor Health Centre as reporting.

Artsrun Ovannisyan, the press secretary for the Armenian MoD, has confirmed the hospitalization of the victims to the Berd hospital. "Residents of the Aigedzor community accidentally stepped on a mine, and an explosion occurred as a result," reported Artsrun Ovannisyan as quoted by the "News-Armenia".

Three 32-36-year-old old residents of the Aigepar village were blown up on a mine. They stepped on the mine while they were collecting herbs, the "Shamshyan.com" reports.
