During the past few years, much has been written and discussed about selective sex abortions in Armenia, and the fact that more males were being born than girls; a troubling demographic trend in a country grappling with a decreasing population.

An unidentified shooter killed three and injured five when he opened fire on people gathered at the Shaimiram village cemetery in Aragatzotn Province today.
