Video surveillance systems have been installed in 42 kindergartens across Yerevan. The systems record footage with exact date and time stamps to ensure security and accountability, when necessary.

The process of signing contracts with the property owners of condemned buildings at 10 and 17 Arzumanyan Street is going on. Of the 76 property units, contracts have been signed for 61. Legal proceedings have been initiated for the alienation of 14 units, and a court ruling has already been issued for the compulsory alienation of one unit. Another contract is scheduled to be signed on October 21.
“The Yerevan Municipality initiated this process back in September 2022, and now, in October 2025, we are still discussing the fact that some residents have yet to acknowledge that they are living in fourth-stage emergency buildings, which are at serious risk of collapse. The Municipality bears no direct legal obligation in this matter; we are acting solely out of a firm commitment to public safety. The Municipality has proposed a program to resettle residents of the condemned buildings at 10 and 17 Arzumanyan Street, to construct new residential buildings, and to compensate the residents with new apartments, even though some of the existing properties are valued at zero drams. Those who are obstructing this process through legal action must recognize their share of responsibility,” stated the Mayor.
