On March 29, at 15:07, the National Crisis Management Center of Armenia received a report about a traffic accident on the 14th km of the Yerevan-Sevan highway, near the "Ardzvi" statue, where a car has fallen into a gorge.

A firefighting and rescue team from the regional rescue department of the Ministry of Emergency Situations was dispatched to the scene.

It has been determined that a Hyundai Veloster, driven by Ani M., veered off the roadway, collided with the roadside barrier, and slid into the gorge (approximately 10 meters deep). Fortunately, there were no injuries reported.

The rescuers de-energized the vehicle, secured it, and then used specialized equipment to extract the car from the gorge.
