Ruben Arakelyan, a 19-year-old Armenian serviceman wounded during the April skirmishes on the Karabakh frontline, will continue treatment in Germany. “Armenia’s Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan has transferred the promised €43 000 necessary for Ruben’s treatment,” Narine Tumanyan, one of the soldier’s relatives, told A1+. The family needed €90.000 for Ruben’s treatment in Germany. They were able to raise € 47000. Seyran Ohanyan had promised to transfer to the account of Anahit Mkrtchyan, who is Ruben’s mother, the remaining €43 000. The 19-year-old soldier was wounded during the clashes in Talish. He got spinal cord injury and was transferred to the Erebuni medical centre in Yerevan where he has undergone several operations ever since.
