Walking to Republic Square in Yerevan. Huge convoys of cars heading there. Reports of protestors breaking into government buildings.
Gunfire into the air. Ministry of Foreign Affairs just went dark as I passed it. Guy walking away tells me 'be careful there.'
Mass unrest at Republic Square in front of the government building.
Protesters at the government building screaming 'GHA-RA-BAGH' (Karabakh) - the same slogan that kicked it all off in February 1988.
Asked a few protesters leaving where they are going: 'we are heading to find him [Pashinyan]. Probably this f**king coward is at the airport. No worries, we will f**k his mother.'
Protestors chanting 'Nikol betrayed us'
Protesters have stormed parliament
