The parents of a number of servicemen held a protest action in front of Vazgen Sargsyan military university. 24news.am news agency covered the topic of public interest on the spot.

During the media coverage, an officer of the Ministry of Defense with the colonel  shoulder strap approached the 24news.am cameraman and tried to obstruct his work, going beyond the scope of his powers.
