“We mourn with the families of the victims and do everything possible to support and facilitate their financial burden,” it said in a statement.

VTB Bank (Armenia) did not plan to publicize this information, since the theme is  very painful, “and we believe that this is the least we can do for the defenders of the Motherland, but given the numerous requests from the media, we chose to make an official statement,” the statement says.
