Russian gas supply to Armenia suspended

Russian natural gas supply to Armenia has been temporarily halted due to emergency repairs on the Kazakh-Saguramo pipeline in Georgia.

In a statement, Gazprom Armenia, a subsidiary of Russia's gas giant Gazprom, said gas supply to Armenia would be suspended from 10 a.m. on Wednesday until 10 p.m. on Thursday.

Uninterrupted service is ensured through reserves and increased Iranian gas imports.
