No Armenians known to be among Kursk casualties - Foreign Ministry August 10, 2024 - 13:17 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia does not possess information about the presence of Armenian citizens or nationals among the victims of events in Kursk, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Ani Badalyan said Friday, August 9, according to RFE/RL’s Armenian service reports. Ukrainian troops continue their offensive in Russia’s western Kursk region, as their surprise cross-border attack enters a fifth day. The Russian defence ministry said on Friday it was “continuing to repel” Ukraine’s military, which it claimed had lost more than 280 personnel in the past 24 hours - a figure that has not been independently verified,” the BBC reports. Reports suggest that Ukrainian troops are operating more than 10km (six miles) inside Russia - the deepest advance by Kyiv since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Ukraine has not openly admitted the incursion, but President Volodymyr Zelensky said this week that Moscow must "feel" the consequences for its invasion.

Artur Aleksanyan Says He Was Robbed Of Gold Due To Refereeing Injustice At Olympics, Armenia’s Government & Olympic Committee File Formal Appeal ➖➖➖ Armenia’s Artur Aleksanyan, who won a silver medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, has spoken out for the first time since his defeat in the Men’s Greco-Roman (97 kg) wrestling final, reports Armenpress. The judges scored the match 4-1 (technical scores) in favor of Aleksanyan’s opponent, Iran’s Mohammad Hadi Saravi, who was awarded the gold medal. Speaking to reporters, Aleksanyan claimed that the referees were biased against him during the final match, failing to penalize his opponent for a blatant rule violation. He was visibly upset during the award ceremony & removed his silver medal as a sign of protest. “I came here for gold, but everyone saw what happened during my match,” he stated. “At one point, the Iranian wrestler was outside the mat with both legs. I noticed it & told the coaches to challenge. If you go out with both legs, I should have been awarded one point, but instead, they gave two points to the Iranian athlete, plus an additional point for the challenge. Everyone is asking me why I took off the medal—this is why! That one point should have been mine, and the final score should have been 2-1 in my favor.” He continued, “I am confident that the point in that incident should have been mine. In tournaments like this, especially in the final, even the smallest details can make a significant difference.” Aleksanyan voiced his deep disappointment over the “injustices” he experienced, highlighting similar biases against fellow Armenian wrestlers Slavik Galstyan & Arsen Harutyunyan in their matches. In response to the outcome, Armenia’s Deputy Minister of Education, Science, Culture, and Sports, Karen Giloyan, stated that the Armenian government would support the appeal process. Armenia’s National Olympic Committee has backed Aleksanyan’s claim & has filed an appeal with the International Olympic Committee. The Armenian Wrestling Federation has also filed an appeal, citing bias against Aleksanyan during the final match. Read the full article on ZartonkMedia.com.
