As every Thursday, many citizens gathered in front of the government building to raise their voices about different issues today as well.
The relatives of pilots who died in an "Armenian Airlines" plane crash in the Islamic Republic of Iran on 2001 May 17 and a group of former pilots were gathered at the government building with signs reading "Mr. Prime Minister, we are also humans and want to live". There are already 4 disabled pilots, while the victims' successors haven't received their compensation for two years now.

They state that they will come to the government building every week until their issue is solved.
"They are waiting for us to fill the benzene and burn ourselves. We have no other choice," said a widow of one of the dead pilots.
Disabled pilot Gagik Mirzoyan says the government will protract the solution to this issue until everyone dies.

The parents of murdered soldiers had also gathered in front of the government building and were demanding that the government penalize the murderers, the residents of the sale zone were demanding adequate compensation for their homes and the cheated depositors were demanding their money from "Armenia" bank.
