“If the enemy retreated 20 meters, it does not mean they left our lands. They are in the same place; we are in ours,” said Masis Zeynalyan, a member of the “Aprelu Yerkir” faction of the Tegh Community Council of Elders of the Syunik Region, in a telephone conversation with Aravot.am.
The latter’s 7-hectare field is also under the control of the enemy. “I am not speaking only on behalf of myself but of those residents of the community who could not cultivate their fields,” says the member of the Council of Elders. Of course, they will have a problem with cattle feed during the season, but the Council member hopes that the support promised by the government will be given before that. “The Governor was also in Tegh a few days ago; he visited all the villages.
The people asked those same questions, and he said they would calculate and provide support,” Masis Zeynalyan notes. Syunik Region Governor Robert Ghukasyan announced yesterday in the National Assembly that the affected residents will receive support for the unrealized income of the current year. According to him, in Tegh village, 50 families have a problem cultivating the land.
Robert Ghukasyan also said the enemy retreated “in some places” without detailing the exact parts. “Well, there are things it’s not the governor’s business; they have to report to him too, then there are security issues, maybe we can’t talk openly,” said the Council of Elders member.

Let us remind you that in 2023 On April 11, around 4:00 p.m., under the pretext of adjusting the deployment locations, the Azerbaijanis service members approached the Armenian side performing engineering works and opened fire with various caliber weapons in the direction of the RA Armed Forces representatives and positions. The Armenian side had four victims and six wounded.
Masis Zeynalyan says the village and the people live their daily lives. “Besides security issues, many other issues in the community depend on the municipal administration. Why are you not interested in them?” said the member of the opposition faction of the Council of Elders, listing some of them, which we will address separately.
